Bronx Talk: Bronx Stories
Tired of people who know little about our stories speaking for us? Come up to the Bronx Museum for Bronx Talk: Bronx Stories. It's a public program showcasing stories that are about the Bronx and that have been inspired by artworks in the Museum's exhibitions.
The goals of Bronx Stories are fourfold: to challenge stereotypes about the Bronx and promote positive images of the borough; provide a platform for voices from the community and space for the community to come together; encourage deeper engagement with art; and to create a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere in the Museum.
By telling our stories and listening to stories from different people, places, and times, we can rise above stereotypes and strengthen our community.
