Museum and a Movie: Becoming

May 8, 2022, 12:00 pm, Free Admission

NCHGS’s Museum and a Movie series showcases independent, international, and historical short films relevant to our museum exhibits and the communities we serve.

Celebrate Mother’s Day with us by enjoying free admission to the Sigal Museum and a screening of Becoming, a 2020 documentary film based on Michelle Obama’s 2018 memoir.

Becoming is an intimate glimpse into the former first lady’s personal life, her childhood growing up in Chicago, her family, and her journey across the United State as she embarks on a tour of her memoir.

Becoming is 1 hour and 30 minutes in length, and will be shown at 12:00 and 2:00 PM in the John R. Austen Auditorium of the Sigal Museum. Seating will be arranged to accommodate social distancing.
