In this Zoom webinar, Curator Gordon Wilkins explores the work of the Florida Highwaymen. The loosely affiliated group of 26 African American landscape painters sold their vivid and expressive tropical scenes door-to-door and out of the trunks of their cars along the coastal roads of Eastern Florida from the 1950s through the 1980s.
This program was presented in partnership with Andover’s Memorial Hall Library (recorded on October 1, 2025).
