The museum, 740 E. 56th Place, was founded in 1961 based on Burroughs’ work to include black history and culture in education.
To honor Burroughs, also a printmaker, artist Jessie Whitehead will lead a workshop on social justice printmaking from 1-3 p.m.
From 2-4 p.m., people are invited to make a birthday card for Burroughs, who died in 2010. She would have turned 101 on Sunday.
