The Harriet Tubman - Journey to Freedom sculpture is on display at Renaissance Plaza through June 30

Don't miss your opportunity to see the sculpture. The City of White Plains will be the only location in southern New York State to host the "Harriet Tubman - The Journey to Freedom" sculpture in 2022.

Harriet Tubman was an escaped enslaved woman who became a "conductor" on the Underground Railroad, leading enslaved people to freedom before the Civil War, all while carrying a bounty on her head. But she was also a nurse, a Union spy and a women's suffrage supporter. Tubman is one of the most recognized icons in American history and her legacy has inspired countless people from every race and background.
