One of the highlights of our spring semester was meeting Mrs. Wyatt Tee Walker and Patrice Walker Powell before the opening of our special exhibition “Hope, Faith, and Courage: Early Civil Rights Leaders in Richmond.”
Under the guidance of Jen Thomas in Boatwright Memorial Library's Book Arts Studio, #URichmond students Cindy Ochoa, ’22, and Jacquelin Park, ’21, created a linocut print for the exhibition honoring Wyatt Tee Walker, chief of staff for Martin Luther King, Jr. - and we’re excited to share that the print is now on permanent display in our classroom!

Congratulations to UR Downtown student coordinator Joanna Hejl on being named #URichmond's first Beinecke Scholar!
