Weekday Arts Events (Nov. 28-Dec. 1)

MONDAY
LEVINE MUSEUM OF THE NEW SOUTH
History is complex, and there are countless perspectives on the South’s most significant events. The Levine not only puts those events in context, it offers multimedia exhibits, forums, and artistic expressions that are tethered to our past. The Life and Times of Robert Smalls, THROUGH JAN. 22, examines the story of this escaped slave, Civil War hero, and South Carolina politician. Looking at Appalachia, THROUGH MAY 28, showcases pictures from a wide range of photographers in the region and provides a counterpoint to the “War on Poverty” images from the 1960s.
