What comes to mind when you hear the words family,
home, and memory? What special memories live in your
family home? How does your childhood home live in your
memory? Where are family memories kept when the family
home is no longer there?

| Artist Erica L. Jones noted sources of family
strength and inspiration in this drawing of her
grandmother, her grandfather's plow, and her grandparent's
home. |
Community participants were invited to explore the idea
of the home as the keeper of family memory with Keisha
Roberts, a featured artist of the Fifth
Annual African American Cultural Celebration at
the North Carolina Museum of History. The quilt will become
a part of the Museum's education collection and will be
on display in the education wing.
