Young and feisty, talented and sexy, Elvis Presley revolutionized pop music in the early sixties. His trailblazing renditions of blacks-only blues with rock shot him to the top of the charts and into the libidos of America's teenage girls. The exhibition Elvis! Grace and Grit looks at the early years of superstardom through his many CBS appearances. 25 never-exhibited-before candids and on air photographs document Elvis before the Las Vegas yearsduring the meteoric rise of his star.

The Japanese Garden

From the permanent collection of the Morikami Museum, photographs by Haruzo Ohashi

The Japanese garden represents an idealized view of naturean harmonious composition of natural elements designed to capture the essence of nature and the Japanese closeness to it. In the exhibition, The Japanese Garden, noted landscape photographer Haruzo Ohashi has arranged six fundamental styles--the pleasure boat, the stroll, contemplation, many pleasures, the tea and courtyard styles to coincide with Japanese history and the social changes it necessitated. Through 100 aesthetic images, we see how the new fashion of tea drinking, the popularization of Zen Buddhism by the military and, later, the emergence of an urban middle class have influenced the Japanese Garden.

The Kennedy Years

From the archives of Stanley Tretick

When John F. Kennedy was elected to the White House in November 1960, the American people embarked on a thousand-day journey to a mythical land. Now remembered as Camelot, a metaphoric equivalent of King Arthur's Court, Kennedy's presidency placed him and his young family at the center of the world's stage. There they helped inspire a cultural reassessment of the American way of life. This exhibition of Stanley Tretick's photographs includes some of the most memorable images of America's Camelot and evokes the historical context in which it emerged. More

Robert Smalls: Slave, Soldier, Statesman

The Illustrated Tale of Robert Smalls' Journey from Slavery to Congress as told through the voice of Smalls' great-granddaughter, Dolly Nash

NEW EXHIBIT! An intimate portrait of Civil War hero Robert Smalls as told through the voice of his great-granddaughter, Dolly Nash. In 1862 Smalls was a slave pilot working aboard Planter, a Confederate transport steamer, in South Carolina's Charleston harbor. In the early morning hours of May 13 he commandeered the ship with his family and 12 other slaves aboard. He then sailed past the rebel forts in the harbor and reached the Union blockade. Union newspapers hailed Smalls as a hero and called the ship "the first trophy from Fort Sumter." In 1863 Smalls piloted the ironclad Keokuk in a failed Union attack on Fort Sumter. Keokuk sank the next morning, moments after the crew was rescued by a tug. Later that year Smalls became the first black captain of a U.S. vessel after an act of bravery under fire. Smalls helped draft the constitution of the state in which he had been a slave. He became a S.C. state legislator and militia general. He later served five terms as a U.S. Congressman. For nearly 20 years he served as U.S. Collector of Customs in Beaufort, S.C. where he lived as owner in the house in which he had been a slave. In 1975 the Department of the Interior designated Robert Smalls' house a National Historic Landmark, which commemorates American history. More

SURRENDERING THE

WHITE HOUSE

Documenting Watergate

Depicts the faces, the photographs, the charts, exhibits, and journalists' notes which reveal the aspects of the tragedy that has been uncovered beneath the glossy surface of American life. Skulduggery and dirty tricks, even tax evasion and misuse of public funds--and the central issue of the crisis--the abuse of Executive power. The exhibition examines the initial break-in, the Senate hearings, Nixon's Impeachment, behind-the-scenes filming of All the President's Men, and finally the surfacing 30 years later of the man known only as "Deep Throat." The Witnesses...The witnesses, all of them, officials or agents of the Nixon Administration, left a stunning impression of something missing--some ordinary, familiar component of the human makeup, taken for granted when present but sinister by its absence. Collectively the cohorts of Mr. Nixon were deficient. They were without a sense of wrong. They took the stand one after another to describe or defend their conduct. Whether the proposed operations were illegal, immoral, unethical, criminal, or dirty trick; few hesitated, only one ever said NO. More
