Visit “Margaret Walker & the Power of Words,” a New Exhibit in Gallery 1

Mississippi’s literary tapestry is woven with the distinct voices, past and present, of authors who evoke a powerful sense of place, resonant imagery, and characters that remain with you long after you’ve turned the last page.

We are proud to help bring that history to the community with our new exhibit, “Margaret Walker & the Power of Words,” located in Gallery 1 at Jackson State University. Immerse yourself in the history of an author, educator, and community member whose works were genre-defining and whose scholarship brought creative minds together.

Let yourself be inspired by the story of Margaret Walker. Visit our exhibit today.
