SUMMARY:Free Exhibition Tour
DESCRIPTION:Join Newcomb Art Museum at noon on the Third Thursday and Second Saturday of each month for a free guided tour of the exhibition Per(Sister): Incarcerated Women of Louisiana. \nAbout the exhibition:\nNewcomb Art Museum has partnered with formerly incarcerated women\, community organizations\, stakeholders\, and those directly impacted by the prison system to create the exhibition Per(Sister)\, which is intended to share the stories of currently and formerly incarcerated women in Louisiana\, and shine a light on the myriad issues as identified and expressed by the women themselves. \nThe experiences of incarcerated women are often unknown\, overlooked\, dismissed\, or misunderstood. Per(Sister) presents the personal and intimate stories\, in their own voices and in their own terms\, of thirty women that persist in their drive for the integral survival of their mind\, body\, and soul. \nTheir stories come to life through the pairing of a “persister” and an artist who created a work inspired by her story\, other stories take the shape of voice recordings\, or handwritten messages\, all with the intention of challenging misconceptions and uninformed assumptions. By building awareness of the situations arising before\, during and after incarceration\, the exhibition Per(Sister) seeks to find common ground and pathways for society to empathetically move forward together. \nPer(Sister) examines themes such as the root causes of women’s incarceration\, the social impact of long-term incarcerated mothers\, the psychological and physical toll of incarceration\, and the challenges and opportunities of reentry for formerly incarcerated women. \nThis event is free and open to the public. Email museum@tulane.edu or call 504.314.2406 with questions.

SUMMARY:Free Performance by Michaela A. Harrison
DESCRIPTION:Join the Newcomb Art Museum for a free performance from New-Orleans Vocalist Michaela A. Harrison as she sings and performs in response to themes presented in the exhibition “Per(Sister): Incarcerated Women of Louisiana.” \nAbout Michaela A. Harrison:\nMichaela A. Harrison is a New Orleans-based vocalist who has performed nationally and internationally in theatrical productions\, with various bands and musical collectives and with the all-female trio Mother Tongue. Since the disbanding of Mother Tongue in 2008\, Michaela has established an ever-growing following as a solo artist at local venues such as Sweet Lorraine’s Jazz Club\, where she is featured weekly during Sunday brunch\, the Juju Bag Café\, where she sings on Friday evenings\, and Ashé Cultural Arts Center\, where she performs regularly for community gatherings and special events. While comfortable with a full band\, a choir or an orchestra\, Michaela often sings with a guitar as her only accompaniment\, working regularly with Brazilian virtuoso Marcio Pereira and local favorites Carl LeBlanc and Todd Duke.\nMichaela began singing in the Baptist church at age 5. Her musical style incorporates her gospel roots as well as a diverse range of genres including jazz\, blues\, R & B\, soul\, samba\, MPB and African traditional music. As a protégé of Bernice Johnson Reagon\, founder of Sweet Honey In The Rock\, Michaela is well-versed in spirituals\, work songs\, and African American protest music from the Civil Rights era. With a four-octave range and a vocal quality that runs the gamut from pristine sweetness to fiercely powerful belting\, Michaela has often been compared to such greats as Minnie Riperton and Mahalia Jackson\, though she maintains a signature style that distinguishes her voice as easily recognizable no matter what she is singing. Her soulful\, heartfelt delivery of both covers and original music has often moved audiences to tears.\nHolding a Bachelor’s Degree in Foreign Service and a Master’s in Africana Studies\, Michaela has also studied and lived in East Africa and Brazil. Fluent in French and Portuguese\, and familiar with Spanish and Swahili\, Michaela has an expanded repertoire of world music and renders songs in their original language. She infuses her performances with insightful commentary based on her multi-cultural perspective\, simultaneously uplifting and educating audiences.\nMichaela has performed at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival on several occasions\, with John Boutté\, Kermit Ruffins\, Bill Summers\, Percussion\, Inc. and Kumbuka African Drum and Dance Ensemble\, as well as at the Essence Festival with Mother Tongue. She has also sung at venues in Washington\, DC\, New York\, Atlanta and California. International performances have included festivals\, clubs and private events in Brazil\, Jamaica\, France\, Germany\, Italy\, England\, Switzerland and the Netherlands. Since 2008\, she has appeared in three theatrical productions: “Rent” at Le Petit Theatre in the French Quarter\, “The Women of Brewster Place” at Anthony Bean Theater and “Swimming Upstream.” She has recorded with members of Sweet Honey in the Rock\, Bill Summers/Los Hombres Calientes and\, most recently\, Kermit Ruffins. She and Kermit perform the classic duet “Baby It’s Cold Outside” on his 2009 Christmas CD\, “Have A Crazy Cool Christmas\,” which attracted nationwide acclaim. Michaela’s first “solo” CD\, “Love’s Divine\,” was released July 1\, 2010.

SUMMARY:Free Exhibition Tour
DESCRIPTION:Join Newcomb Art Museum at noon on the Third Thursday and Second Saturday of each month for a free guided tour of the exhibition Per(Sister): Incarcerated Women of Louisiana. \nAbout the exhibition:\nNewcomb Art Museum has partnered with formerly incarcerated women\, community organizations\, stakeholders\, and those directly impacted by the prison system to create the exhibition Per(Sister)\, which is intended to share the stories of currently and formerly incarcerated women in Louisiana\, and shine a light on the myriad issues as identified and expressed by the women themselves. \nThe experiences of incarcerated women are often unknown\, overlooked\, dismissed\, or misunderstood. Per(Sister) presents the personal and intimate stories\, in their own voices and in their own terms\, of thirty women that persist in their drive for the integral survival of their mind\, body\, and soul. \nTheir stories come to life through the pairing of a “persister” and an artist who created a work inspired by her story\, other stories take the shape of voice recordings\, or handwritten messages\, all with the intention of challenging misconceptions and uninformed assumptions. By building awareness of the situations arising before\, during and after incarceration\, the exhibition Per(Sister) seeks to find common ground and pathways for society to empathetically move forward together. \nPer(Sister) examines themes such as the root causes of women’s incarceration\, the social impact of long-term incarcerated mothers\, the psychological and physical toll of incarceration\, and the challenges and opportunities of reentry for formerly incarcerated women. \nThis event is free and open to the public. Email museum@tulane.edu or call 504.314.2406 with questions.
