Join Arts, Culture & Fun for a screening of the award-winning documentary, All Me: The Life & Times of Winfred Rembert, at Pelham Fritz. Special guests include artist Winfred Rembert & filmmaker Vivian Ducat.

With his intensely autobiographical paintings depicting the day-to-day existence of African Americans in the segregated South, Winfred Rembert has preserved an important, if often disturbing, chapter of American history. His paintings reflect parts of his life including toiling in the cotton fields, singing in church, dancing in juke joints, and working on a chain gang.
