SUMMARY:Opening Reception: ¡Pleibol!
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the in-person opening reception for the exhibition\, ¡Pleibol! In the Barrios and the Big Leagues / En los barrios y las grandes ligas. Explore this traveling exhibition by the Smithsonian Institute and view a selection of items from the Connecticut Museum of Culture and History collection. To help celebrate baseball\, we will have some fun family activities on the lawn. Come toss a ball or try your hand at stick ball!    \nBaseball is the national pastime. But it’s also an American export\, one with a tradition that’s constantly evolving. ¡Pleibol! shares the experiences of Latinas and Latinos whose love for the game and incredible talent have changed baseball and transformed American culture forever.  \nThroughout the last century\, Latinas and Latinos have used baseball to chase their dreams\, challenge prejudice\, and build communities. Whether in the barrios or the big leagues\, in rural backyards or barn-storming travel teams\, they left a mark on how we see\, hear\, and play the game.  \n This event is free and open to the public! The reception begins at 2:00 pm. Light refreshments will be served.  \nPlease let us know if you will be able to join us by August 7.  RSVP by clicking here.  Questions? Contact Jen Busa\, Public Programs and Special Events Coordinator\, at jbusa@connecticutmuseum.org. \nOrganized by the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service in collaboration with the National Museum of American History. \nThis exhibition received generous support from the Cordoba Corporation and Linda Alvarado\, and federal support from the Latino Initiatives Pool\, administered by the Smithsonian Latino Center.\n#Pleibol    \nPremier Community Partner\n \nSupporting Community Partner\n \nSupporting Sponsor\n \nContributing Local Sponsor\n \n  \n
