A different figure will be highlighted each Saturday, performances take place in the Museum at 12:30, 1:30, & 2:30.
1st Saturday - The Other Tubmans: Emily and William
The character in The Other Tubmans tells a story that explains the connection between slaves freed by Emily Tubman in the 1830s and William Tubman, who served as Liberia, Africa's longest running President from 1944-1971.
3rd Saturday - Augusta Civil Rights Activist
Instead of portraying a specific person from history, the Augusta Civil Rights Activist is a conglomerate of many different people--representative of the Black Augustans who took part in the local Civil Rights Movement. The character is a Paine College student remembering Jim Crow Augusta and training for the H.L. Green Department Store Lunch counter sit-ins in downtown Augusta in 1960. This is an interactive presentation in which visitors are encouraged to participate in a demonstration and sing protest songs.
