'She Speaks: Echoes of Strength and Resilience' Exhibit at Mather
2025-02-20 17:30 - 2025-02-28 19:00 (America/New_York) | Mather Interpretive Center, Beaufort
The Mather School Museum & Interpretive Center proudly presents “She Speaks: Echoes of Strength and Resilience,” a powerful new exhibit featuring artist Amiri Farris and celebrating the enduring influence and cultural contributions of African-American women.

About the Exhibit
Set within the historic walls of the Mather School — an institution founded to educate formerly enslaved girls and women — “She Speaks” pays tribute to the generations of Black women who have shaped history as educators, activists, mothers, artists and spiritual leaders. Through contemporary paintings, mixed media works and photography, this evocative exhibition highlights their resilience, wisdom and artistic expressions.
The featured artists, all with deep connections to the Lowcountry and beyond, use their work to amplify voices that have long been foundational to the region’s cultural and historical identity. Their pieces reflect the strength, beauty and perseverance of Black women throughout time.
A Historic Venue for a Powerful Narrative
The Mather School Museum & Interpretive Center is dedicated to preserving the legacy of Rachel Crane Mather, who established the school in 1868 to educate freed African-American women. The exhibit serves as both a reflection on the past and an inspiration for the future, honoring the indelible impact of the women who walked these halls and paved the way for generations to come.
Join Us for the Opening Reception:
Date: Thursday, Feb. 20
Time: 5:30 – 7:00 PM
Location: Jewel Gallery, Mather School Museum & Interpretive Center on the Technical College of the Lowcountry’s Beaufort Mather Campus.
This event is free and open to the public. Guests will have the opportunity to engage with the artists, learn about the stories behind their work, and celebrate the strength and legacy of African-American women in the Lowcountry and beyond.
About the Mather School Museum & Interpretive Center
The Mather School Museum & Interpretive Center preserves the legacy of the Mather School, founded in 1868 by Rachel Crane Mather to educate freed African Americans in Beaufort County. The museum continues to honor this legacy through exhibitions, educational programs, and community initiatives that celebrate African-American history, culture, and contributions.
