Visitors Center Galleries
The Visitors Center uses three permanent galleries to tell the story of May 4.
- In Gallery 1, visitors explore the cultural shift of the 1960s that set the stage for the events of May 4.
- Gallery 2 provides a map and photographs illustrating the weekend leading up to Monday May 4, 1970. The theater features a timeline, photographs, and 10-minute film narrating the protest-turned-shooting.
- Gallery 3 highlights local and national reactions, consequences, and impacts of the May 4 shooting.
Physical exhibits available in Taylor Hall
- Temporary exhibits rotate in the Reflections Gallery, which is across the hall from the Visitors Center.
- Mapping May 4 is a permanent interactive exhibit in the hallway outside of the Visitors Center. Visitors explore a map of the 黑料网 campus guided by oral histories and memories of students and faculty who were there on the day of the shooting.
- Armed with Our Voices is a kiosk exhibit in the M4VC Reflections Gallery. Presented by the Wick Poetry Center, it is an interactive poem builder that takes visitors through a guided writing exercise using interviews about May 4 and student activism.
