Benjamin L. Hooks Central Library 3030 Poplar Ave., Memphis, Tennessee 38111
From September 29 until Halloween, the Benjamin L. Hooks Central Library will be displaying our photo exhibition, "The Bluff City Chinese: a 150-Year Retrospective." Exhibits will feature historical photographs and documents from Chinese people first coming to the South in the 1870s, as plantation owners and industrial bosses first searched for cheap labor after the formal abolition of slavery, to the growth of Chinese-owned small businesses and community organizations over time.
Free event. The Goodwyn Gallery is to your left from the main entrance of the Central Library.
