Join Library Reference Assistant Kariah Brust in our temporary exhibition The Dirty South: Contemporary Art, Material Culture, and the Sonic Impulse to learn more about the friendship between artists Beauford Delaney and Palmer Hayden. We’ll explore their artworks in the exhibition and discover how the artists’ friendship is revealed through letters found in the Artists’ Letters and Manuscript collection in the Crystal Bridges archive.
