They grew up in a place colloquially referred to as Slab Town&#8230; segregated, abandoned spaces we were forced to live in back in St. Andrews, New Brunswick.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Edward_Mitchell_Bannister\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"1205\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Edward_Mitchell_Bannister_by_Gustine_L._Hurd.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-56278\" style=\"width:461px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Edward_Mitchell_Bannister_by_Gustine_L._Hurd.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Edward_Mitchell_Bannister_by_Gustine_L._Hurd-398x600.jpg 398w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Edward_Mitchell_Bannister_by_Gustine_L._Hurd-768x1157.jpg 768w\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><sup>Edward Mitchell Bannister 1880 | Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Edward_Mitchell_Bannister\">Wikipedia<\/a><\/sup><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite these obstacles, Bannister moved to the United States and became the first Black artist\u2014and the first Canadian\u2014to earn a significant North American art award, taking the bronze medal at Philadelphia\u2019s Centennial Exhibition in 1876. His work was praised internationally, appearing in esteemed galleries worldwide, including the Smithsonian American Art Museum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yet Bannister remained largely unknown in Canada. As Woods explained:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHe was in fact erased from Canadian history. So he was famous in the United States; when I first heard about Bannister as a young artist and began promoting his name, nobody in the arts community, whether it was art colleges, Nova Scotia College of Art, other artists, knew about him.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bannister\u2019s serene landscapes and peaceful seascapes, deeply influenced by the French Barbizon school, embody a quiet yet profound beauty. His artwork features expressive brushwork and subtle color palettes, reflecting resilience and tranquility rooted in his early experiences in Saint Andrews.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"869\" height=\"326\" sizes=\"(max-width: 869px) 100vw, 869px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-2025-03-28-110343.jpg\" alt=\"Hidden Blackness: Online Panel Discussion On Edward Bannister &amp; Blackness in the Maritimes History | Screenshot: Clinton Davis (from left to right) Thandiwe McCarthy, Aliyah Micho, David Woods, Dr. Harvey Amani Whitfield, Dr. Mary McCarthy-Brandt, and again\" class=\"wp-image-56279\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-2025-03-28-110343.jpg 869w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-2025-03-28-110343-600x225.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-2025-03-28-110343-768x288.jpg 768w\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><sup>Hidden Blackness: Online Panel Discussion On Edward Bannister &amp; Blackness in the Maritimes History | Screenshot: Clinton Davis (from left to right) Thandiwe McCarthy, Aleya Michaud, David Woods, Dr. Harvey Amani Whitfield, Dr. Mary McCarthy-Brandt, Emily Falvey<\/sup><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The panel discussion moderated by Thandiwe McCarthy and hosted by Owens Art Gallery director Emily Falvey featured insights from prominent-in-the-field Atlantic Canadians, including Dr. Mary McCarthy-Brandt, Dr. Harvey Amani Whitfield, and artist Aleya Michaud.
