D.C. Undercover: Photographs by Steven M. Cummings

November 12, 2006 - April 29, 2007

Museum: Anacostia Community Museum

Location: John Kinard Gallery

Steven Cummings's passion is photographing people in and around the city -- who as it turns out, often wear caps and hats. In one section of DC Undercover, he captures the images of those engaged in a variety of daily activities, including attending church, youthful play, and neighborhood shopping. Cummings also photographed African American women who attended a special Hat Tea that was held at the 5. These images attest to the special bond that is often forged between a hat and its proud wearer.
