Directed by Catherine Gund (USA, 2024, 90 min.).
Featuring artists Faith Ringgold and Mary Enoch Elizabeth Baxter, Paint Me a Road Out of Here uncovers the whitewashed history of For the Women’s House, a masterpiece painted by Ringgold, and follows its 50-year journey from Rikers Island to the Brooklyn Museum in a heartbreaking, funny, and true parable for a world without mass incarceration.
Before and after the film, enjoy performances, art-making activities, and more at our Juneteenth Open House. Admission is free all day for Massachusetts residents with a valid zip code!
