The Wake Forest Parks, Recreation & Cultural Resources Department will partner with Wake Forest native Ronald “Skip” Parker to host a “Black History Expo” in February.
Free and open to the public, the expo will feature on display many of Parker’s unique and authentic antiques and collectibles from the mid-1800s through the mid-1900s, including an 1842 wooden washboard, a vintage 1954 DeLaval stainless steel milk can, antique dolls depicting Rosa Parks, Ida B. Wells, Ella Fitzgerald, Katherine Johnson, and Maya Angelou, and much more.
