Thursday Night at the Museum: Navigating the Intersection of Race and Disability

  • Missouri History Museum in Forest Park 5700 Lindell Boulevard St. Louis, MO, 63112 United States (map)

Thursday Nights at the Museum is a weekly series where the museum exhibits are open late and you can enjoy pop-up activities, a cash bar, food and more!

Black disabled people are making change in St. Louis despite facing discriminatory practices rooted in both racism and ableism. Join us for an evening featuring presenters doing important work in the St. Louis community, with historical context showing how Black disabled St. Louisans have worked to achieve social and economic equality.

Come back for more! Thursday Nights at the Museum are sometimes the most fun, sometimes the most thought-provoking, and always the most interesting night of your week. The museum exhibits are open late, and you’ll enjoy cash bar and food for purchase, pop-up activities, concerts, lectures, and more.

ASL interpretation is available for programs with two weeks' advance notice. Please email access@mohistory.org to request ASL interpretation or with other accessibility questions.
