Mark you calendar now for 3 p.m. Thursday, March 24, at Canton Woods when the Everson Museum Outreach and M&T Bank Presents Helen Levitt in the Street. The Everson Museum tells us this presentation is on the photography of Helen Levitt. For more than 70 years, Helen Levitt used her camera to capture fresh, unstudied views of New York City. Levitt’s photographs, in black and white and color, document neighborhood matriarchs on their front stoops, pedestrians negotiating New York’s busy sidewalks and boisterous children at play. The exhibition features a range of photographs spanning Levitt’s long career. Come and enjoy.
