A selection of 10 banners from Sykes’ 100 Women: Collaborations Beyond the Veil will open at the newly renovated, historic Legler Regional Library on February 16th. Created to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the 19th amendment and the suffragists who made it possible, Collaborations Beyond the Veil challenges the way women are and are not traditionally memorialized in public spaces, by positing realistic portraits of living and dynamic women.

Sykes’ Collaboration Beyond the Veil will be on display at the Legler through April 2021, to coincide with the library’s own 100th anniversary, Black History Month and Women’s History Month.

The exhibit will include 10 banners featuring predominantly women of color, and three short videos by Sykes: 100 Women: Collaborations Beyond the Veil features all 100 project participants within a historic framework of the 100th anniversary of the 19th amendment; an interview with Sykes; and the premiere of Unprecedented, No More.
