Since TRAIL is unable to host our usual in-person member events at the present time, we hope these recommendations will help you select from among a wealth of online opportunities to learn, grow, and combat social isolation. Enjoy!
Today’s recommendation is “May Day: Workers of the World Unite!,” a Zoom presentation by UI Stanley Museum of Art Associate Curator of Education Brad Plunger. The lecture will celebrate May Day -- known to many as International Workers' Day -- with a special viewing of artworks that engage concepts of workers' rights, organized labor, radical politics, and dissent.

This lecture is part of the “Saturdays at the Stanley” series, which brings the museum’s collection to audiences in a casual, fun, and interactive atmosphere. Each event has a theme that looks at the museum’s artwork from a different perspective. Curators lead visitors through a selection of works, share stories about the artists and subject matter, and open the discussion up to the audience. The museum invites visitors of all ages to participate in these conversations and get (re)acquainted with the collection.
2019-2020 Saturdays at the Stanley events are sponsored in part by Little Village.
