Description
In this photograph, an unidentified man is seen with three unidentified women at the Pyramid Club. The Pyramid Club was co-founded in 1937 by Dr. Walter F. Jerrick, M.D. and a group of Black professional men as a cultural and social outlet at a time when African Americans were excluded from "white only" organizations. The group eventually purchased a building at 1517 W. Girard Avenue to hold events – the most important of which became its annual art exhibitions, which began in 1941.
