Ella Baker statue dedication

We’re making history, and you’re invited!

Join us as we unveil the world’s first statue honoring Civil Rights legend Ella Baker. We’re honoring this underappreciated hero in American history with a special event.

• Listen to a panel discussion between Ohio State scholars and one of Baker’s fellow Civil Rights activists.
• View a short film capturing the artist’s creative process. 
• Meet the artist, Dana King. 

Be there as we reveal this one-of-a-kind artwork and celebrate one of the most influential women in the Civil Rights movement.

This event is open to the public. Registration is encouraged but not required. Heavy appetizers and desserts will be served during the reception.
