Visit the library to take in TESTIFY, a traveling exhibit of banners depicting historical pieces of Americana that illustrate the struggles from slavery, segregation, and discrimination.

Visit the Ada Public Library to view a satellite of the TESTIFY exhibit, a temporary installation of an impactful photographic exhibit featuring artifacts pertaining to slavery, segregation, and discrimination in the United States. The exhibit features a collection of physical artifacts belonging to former Minnesota Supreme Court Justice and NFL Hall of Famer Alan Page, photographed and memorialized in this traveling exhibit including descriptions of the historically significant items.

The exhibit will be on display at Ada Public Library from Feb. 12 - Mar. 29. This program is made possible thanks in part to funding from the Minnesota Arts & Cultural Heritage Legacy Fund. This program is offered free-of-charge and is open to all.
