2nd Floor, Interspersed with the Permanent Collection

In celebration of America’s 250th anniversary, this yearlong exhibition invites 25 Delawareans to reflect on the state’s history through the lens of the Biggs Museum’s permanent collection. Each participant has selected an artwork or object that speaks to Delaware’s past or present, accompanied by personal reflections that offer diverse perspectives from across the state. Paired with curatorial insight, these selections highlight the stories, identities, and moments that have shaped Delaware over 250 years. Visitors are also encouraged to contribute their own reflections in-gallery throughout 2026, making this an evolving conversation about community, memory, and representation.
