Virtual Tea & Talk:
An Afternoon with Illustrator James McMullan
May 8, 2020 2pm – 3:30pm

This event will be streamed live on NRM.org and Norman Rockwell Museum’s YouTube Channel. If you would like to ask a question, please post your questions in the YouTube Chat Area on the live stream in YouTube.

Join chief educator Mary Berle and chief curator Stephanie Plunkett for an engaging online conversation with award-winning illustrator, James McMullan, whose visual memoir Leaving China traces his World War II childhood and his family’s journeys from China to India, Canada, and the United States. The artist’s personal memories and his creative process, which are at the heart of the project, will be explored. Bring along your questions, observations, and favorite warm beverage for this lively afternoon with a true master of American illustration.

 

Land Acknowledgement

It is with gratitude and humility that we acknowledge that we are learning, speaking and gathering on the ancestral homelands of the Mohican people, who are the indigenous peoples of this land on which the Norman Rockwell Museum was built. Despite tremendous hardship in being forced from here, today their community resides in Wisconsin and is known as the Stockbridge-Munsee Community. We pay honor and respect to their ancestors past and present as we commit to building a more inclusive and equitable space for all.
