Laborfest: WPA Bus Tour (Reservations required)

WPA Bus Tour
With Gray Brechin & Harvey Smith
Join
Gray Brechin and Harvey Smith as they travel through history on a bus
tour of sites built by the New Deal’s “alphabet soup” agencies. You will
learn about the major contribution government-paid workers made during
the depression era’s New Deal programs. Gray and Harvey will discuss the
art, architecture and social programs that effectively dealt with the
period’s economic meltdown in contrast with today’s response. Please be
aware that the tour will take about 5 hours depending on the traffic and
the discussions.
Meet at front of Bill Graham Auditorium, between City Hall and the Main Library.
Reservation required:
