Remnants of 1965

Remnants of 1965 presents Fort Worth’s rich culture and diversity by commemorating an important moment in history to inspire and remind us of what it took for us to get where we are today. The three glass panels that make up this piece were inspired by historic Fort Worth Star-Telegram photographs of the peaceful demonstration for Civil Rights which took place on the steps of the municipal court building in 1965. By referencing these photographs, the work illustrates the unity exhibited in our past which has significantly impacted our present time.
