NBCC x ILBCC 2022 Convention

Join us at the Welcome Reception at the Peoria River Front Museum in the heart of downtown Peoria. The museum is home to the African American Hall of Fame and includes other African American exhibits. The night includes a look at the new “Bronzeville to Harlem: An American Story exhibit that showcases the stories of American migration and immigration, hope and opportunity freedom and the struggle for equality. Twenty-five years in the making, this exhibit, created by renowned artist Preston Jackson, is a sculptural installation comprised of hundreds of unique bronze
and steel figures, relief sculptures, automobiles, buildings, streets and a truss bridge all depicting urban centers from Peoria, Chicago’s Bronzeville and the Harlem neighborhoods of Manhattan.”
