Dancer seeing reflection in mirror

The Reva and David Logan Center for the Arts is proud to present L’union fait la force (Unity makes Strength), an exhibition featuring the work of photographers Seedlynn and Toni Williams. This installation captures the spirit and depth of an eight-year partnership between the Logan Center for the Arts and the Katherine Dunham Centers for Arts and Humanities in East St. Louis.

At its core, L’union fait la force honors the dynamic legacy of American dance pioneer Katherine Dunham. Through striking imagery and intimate documentation, the exhibition celebrates the relationships forged, knowledge exchanged, and joy continually renewed through this intergenerational collaboration. Each year, the two institutions have come together to honor Dunham’s life, work, and enduring influence—not only as a treasured alumna, but as a visionary woman.
