Experience artist Mario Moore's new exhibit "Enshrined: Presence + Preservation" at the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History. The exhibit opens June 3 and "demonstrates Moore’s commitment to celebrating those who are within reach—presenting their labor and their leisure. He encourages us to question who is deserving of portraiture and thus preservation."
