Sleeping with the Ancestors: How I Followed the Footprints of Slavery uses recent photography by a collection of South Carolina photographers to highlight the work of the Joe McGill and the Slave Dwelling Project\, a local non-profit that works to preserve extant slave dwellings throughout the country. “Payne-ful” Business\, Charleston’s Journey to Truth pairs reproductions of historic advertisements with paintings of the enslaved by artist John W. Jones. The exhibitions are on view December 1\, 2023 – February 11\, 2024\, at City Gallery. City Gallery will host a reception on Friday\, December 1 from 5:00-7:00 p.m.; it is free and open to the public. \nSleeping with the Ancestors\nSleeping with the Ancestors uses more than 40 photographs by a collection of SC photographers to highlight the work of the Slave Dwelling Project. The Slave Dwelling Project\, founded in 2010 by Joe McGill\, focuses attention on the lives of the enslaved through the examination of the buildings where they lived. The Slave Dwelling Project has reached more than one hundred fifty sites in twenty-five states and the District of Columbia\, engaging with diverse audiences at historic locations where experts\, including McGill\, conduct programs\, give lectures\, and spend nights in the dwellings. McGill and co-author Herb Frazier recently released the book\, Sleeping with the Ancestors (Hachette Publishing\, 2023\, bit.ly/3sb9S0R)\, focusing on the history of each location that the Slave Dwelling Project has visited. \nThe Slave Dwelling Project envisions a future in which the hearts and minds of Americans acknowledge a more truthful and inclusive narrative of the history of the nation that honors the contributions of all people\, is embedded and preserved in the buildings and artifacts of people of African heritage\, and inspires all Americans to acknowledge their Ancestors. \n“Now that I have the attention of the public by sleeping in extant slave dwellings\, it is time to wake up and deliver the message that the people who lived in these structures were not a footnote in American history” says McGill. \n“Payne-ful” Business\, Charleston’s Journey to Truth\nJohn W. Jones\, legacy preservationist and acclaimed artist\, has created a powerful series of paintings of the enslaved in the antebellum period. Drawing on the historical research of Margaret Seidler\, fourth great-granddaughter of domestic slave trading auctioneer William Payne\, Jones references the descriptive text gleaned from newspaper advertisements as he respectfully brings to life the people who were vital to the success of this community and beyond. For this exhibition\, Jones has created over 40 paintings; each is accompanied by the textual images of the supporting newspaper advertisement\, including its archival provenance. \nSeidler’s upcoming book\, “Payne-ful” Business\, Journey to Truth (Evening Post Books\, February 2024\, evepostbooks.com)\, incorporates Jones’ compelling images in support of the historical interpretation of her recently discovered ancestors. The artist takes the Payne newspaper ads offering for sale blacksmiths\, cooks\, child nurses\, brick masons and dozens of other talents\, and transforms their trades\, skills\, and labors into a compelling visual narrative of the pervasiveness and magnitude of the contributions of the enslaved.\nBorn May 11\, 1950\, in Columbia\, SC\, John W. Jones has been a freelance artist and illustrator for more than 25 years. His former clients include Time Life Books\, IBM\, Westinghouse\, Rubbermaid\, NASA\, Gadded Space and Flight Center\, and the U.S. Postal Service. Jones explores life through art. This multi-talented artist uses oils\, acrylics\, and watercolors for his painting.\nJones’ goal is to paint the African American experience starting with the slave trade in Africa\, through the Middle Passage and pre-Civil War era\, and contrast it with African Americans today. Mr. Jones is the artist and author of the book and traveling exhibition\, Confederate Currency: The Color of Money\, Images of Slavery in Confederate and Southern States Currency. In addition\, he has painted a series on the Buffalo Soldiers\, the 54th Massachusetts and other African Americans in the military. He is currently working on a project that puts focus on the everyday lives of the Gullah people and the struggles and issues they face in trying to sustain their culture in modern day America. His paintings are available at the Rita Smith Gallery in Columbia\, SC and Gallery Chuma in Charleston\, SC.\nJones has received several awards\, including merit awards for his works in the 1998 and 1999 Piccolo Spoleto Festival Art Show. Jones\, who graduated from high school in 1968 and self-taught\, has been drawing since early childhood. Drafted into the U.S. Army in 1970\, Jones served in the Vietnam War\, where he also took illustration classes in military School. Jones has lectured widely as an artist\, activist and motivational speaker at various universities and colleges\, conferences\, and corporate events. \nThose interested in viewing the upcoming exhibition are invited visit City Gallery from December 1\, 2023 to February 11\, 2024 on Wednesdays through Sundays between 12 and 5 p.m. Gallery admission is free\, and walk-ins are welcome.

This 12 x 16 one-room log dwelling was built for the Boyette’s slaves and was made from pine timber from the farm with full-dovetailed notches and dowels. The unique chimney is made entirely of heart-of-pine sticks and daubed with clay base mortar and is the only structures of its kind still standing in NC. \nIn 1890-1910 the building was used as a neighborhood school. In 1979\, the building was restored by the Boyette Family and was placed on the national Register of Historical Places. The Boyette Slave House is a rare example of a type of structure and construction method which originated in medieval building traditions and since the end of slavery has nearly disappeared from the architectural history of NC. \n\n← Back Thank you for your response. ✨\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\nName(required)\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\nEmail(required)\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\nWhich events would you like to participate in?(required)\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\nHow did you hear of the Slave Dwelling Project?\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\nWould you like to receive the SDP newsletter?\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Submit \n \n \n \nΔ URL:https://slavedwellingproject.org/event/boyette-slave-and-schoolhouse-johnson-county-heritage-center/ LOCATION:Boyette Slave and Schoolhouse / Johnson County Heritage Center\, NC-222 & Glendale Rd\, Kenly\, NC\, 27542 CATEGORIES:Campfire Conversation,Lecture,Sleepover ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://slavedwellingproject.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/boyetteevents.png ORGANIZER;CN="Slave Dwelling Project":MAILTO:slavedwellingproject@gmail.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20230922 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20230925 DTSTAMP:20230919T101551Z CREATED:20230109T170415Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230919T101551Z UID:38244-1695340800-1695599999@slavedwellingproject.org SUMMARY:Relmagine Lefferts\, Prospect Park\, Brooklyn\, NY DESCRIPTION:Book signing and sleepover at Relmagine Lefferts\, Prospect Park\, Brooklyn\, NY \nProspect Park Alliance has launched ReImagine Lefferts\, an initiative to re-envision the mission and programming of the Lefferts Historic House museum to recognize its role as a site of slavery\, and tell the stories—in innovative\, inclusive and forward-thinking ways—of the enslaved Africans who lived and worked on the Lefferts farm\, and the Indigenous people of the Lenapehoking whose unceded ancestral lands the farm rested upon. \nThe Alliance seeks to engage the public in a thoughtful dialogue about the legacy of slavery and the exploitation of marginalized communities\, as well as conduct scholarly research into the people who lived and worked the land. The goal is to create programs and exhibits that bring together people of all ages and backgrounds around challenging issues of history and identity. \nBy centering the narratives at the museum on those that are underrepresented in the telling of American history\, we hope that the visitor experience will become even more reflective of the Brooklyn community\, providing a safe space for dialogue about our collective past and contemporary times.
