In this workshop, participants will learn about the role of music in early 20<sup>th<\/sup> century African American history, discover Indiana\u2019s connection to the Harlem Renaissance, and explore how music and emotions are connected through art.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, on Feb. 27, IHS will host a panel on how the virtuosity of Black artists in Indiana has impacted the Black experience nationwide. Poets Mari Evans and Etheridge Knight, jazz guitarist Wes Montgomery and the monumental educational impact of the McArthur Conservatory (1946-1963) will be highlighted in this panel discussion. The arts convey messages of hope, pride and resistance. In a state which practiced de facto segregation, the featured figures and organizations embodied an unrivaled legacy.<\/p>\n<p>The Impact of Indiana\u2019s Black Artists Panel will feature:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Susan L.
