Applause February 3, 2023: "Like a Good Armchair" Exhibit

Season 25 Episode 13 | 26m 46s

“Chairs and sitting are loaded with significance and layers of privilege and the expression of different identities,” said Sam Adams, exhibit curator at the Allen Memorial Art Museum in Oberlin. You'll see chairs differently once you take a tour of the new exhibit, "Like a Good Armchair." Plus, the pride of Dayton, Paul Laurence Dunbar, is honored for his literary legacy in his hometown.
