The St. Petersburg Museum of History and Southern Roots Realty invites you to our monthly lecture series, Happy Hour with the Historian featuring Annette B. Fromm Thursday, July 13th.

Fromm’s presentation will introduce audiences to a variety of Florida Seminole portraits from the nineteenth century and guide viewers on how the portraits were used as propaganda to represent the Seminoles as a dying people. “Seminole Portraits: Reflections Across Time” challenges this long-held belief to explore changing perspectives of Native Americans and the Florida Seminole. With a focus on portraiture over time, the rich history and continued vitality of the Florida Seminole will be brought to life, including introductions to current Seminole artists throughout the state.
