USCT Field Trips

Join CAM staff and docents for an interactive tour of the sculpture, an interactive tour of Stephen Hayes's exhibition, Voices of Futures Past, and a reflective writing and drawing lesson. Each tour will last an hour and a half. Prior to the field trip to the museum, students will engage in a short virtual pre-lesson with museum staff and will watch the Battle of Forks Road documentary.

Teachers will be provided with arts integrated lesson plans to further engagement with the history of the USCT. This project connects deeply with core curriculum in Social Studies, Language Arts, and Art. These field trips will help to generate pride in our community, curiousity in our local history, and begin conversations across lines of difference, creating a fuller understanding of our common history and our shared humanity. Students will have the opportunity to experience art by Durham-born artist Stephen Hayes, who teaches at Duke University and is the winner of the 1858 Prize for Contemporary Southern Art. He is known for his figurative work, specifically depicting the African American experience. Hayes work has been featured in the National Cathedral, Winston Salem State University, Duke University, CAM Raleigh, Rosa Parks Museum, African American Museum of Philadelphia, and Harvey B. Gantt Center, among others.
