For thousands of years, the ocean has beckoned mankind. Mysteries swirling, beauty inspiring, sounds soothing, salty air healing–the sea serves as muse to authors and artists alike. Essential to life and stirring emotion, the sea calls us to pay homage to her. In much the same way, we are called to gather in celebration and support of our community through our beloved Telfair Museums.
On September 12, 2019, Telfair Museums announced the Legacy of Slavery in Savannah Initiative, working with the community to consider how the legacies of slavery still manifest in our city and what we can do to work toward justice. This effort is multifaceted and seeks to engage local Savannahians, artists, scholars, and activists.
