Poster for A Black History Month Celebration presented by Mass General Hospital and the Front Porch Arts Collective, February 2021

In February of 2021, Mass General Hospital partnered with organizations and groups throughout the Greater Boston area to celebrate and honor Black History Month. The Association for the Study of African American Life and History, the organization which helped establish Black History Month, chose the year’s theme, "The Black Family: Representation, Identity, and Diversity."

A Black History Month Celebration was presented as part of the 2020–21 MIT Performing series, a prototyping and presenting series programmed by Jay Scheib, professor for Music and Theater Arts, and presented by the MIT Center for Art, Science & Technology. The series was supported in part by the Council for the Arts at MITMIT Performing promotes a research-based artistic practice and serves as a new platform for contemporary performance.
