The Houston Museum of African American Culture is kicking off its outdoor movie series, HMAAC Movies at Sunset, with the Houston premiere and advance screening of IN OUR MOTHERS' GARDENS.

IN OUR MOTHERS’ GARDENS celebrates the strength and resiliency of Black women and Black families through the complex, and oftentimes humorous, relationship between mothers and daughters. The documentary film pays homage to Black maternal ancestors while examining the immediate and critical importance of self-care, and the healing tools necessary for Black communities to thrive.

Saturday, May 1, 2021 The gates open at 8:00 pm.

The movie starts at 8:30 pm.

Location:

The Shrine of the Black Madonna Cultural and Event Center, 5309 Martin Luther King Blvd, Houston, TX 77021
