Freedom Tower Hosts Albright Collection

Miami Dade College is hosting Read My Pins: The Madeleine Albright Collection at the Freedom Tower, 600 Biscayne Blvd., until April 30.

Albright, former Secretary of State, was known for using brooches to deliver a diplomatic message during her time in office.

Read My Pins is an exhibition that displays her brooches, most of which represent an event that she attended or a meeting with a government official.

One, labeled “King of Beasts,” was worn to her first meeting with Hafez al-Assad, then-President of Syria, to make him more forthcoming, according to the display at the exhibition.

The exhibition is free to the public and will be open from noon to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Friday and noon to 4 p.m. on Saturday.
