An Afternoon with Bethann Hardison

Join us for an afternoon screening of Invisible Beauty and conversation with model and activist Bethann Hardison.

In this absorbing record, fashion revolutionary Bethann Hardison looks back on her journey as a pioneering Black model, modeling agent, and activist, shining a light on an untold chapter in the fight for racial diversity. From walking runway shows alongside Iman to discovering and mentoring models like Naomi Campbell, Hardison has been at the epicenter of major representational shifts in fashion. Catalyzing change requires continuous championing, and as the next generation takes the reins, Hardison reflects on her personal journey and the cost of being a pioneer.

Following the screening, Hardison will discuss her celebrated career across beauty and fashion.

This event is presented as part of the city-wide, 50th anniversary of the film MAHOGANY, and presented in collaboration with the Mahogany at 50 Committee. Learn more at mahoganyat50.com.
