Wallach Art Gallery will celebrate his life and accomplishments in the first exhibition of objects from his archive, Arthur Mitchell: Harlem’s Ballet Trailblazer. Curated by Lynn Garafola, professor emerita of dance at Barnard College, the exhibition is presented with Columbia’s Rare Book & Manuscript Library, to which Mitchell donated his archive in 2015.
