WLA/WHS Scholarly Series - Finding Our Place: Evolving American Identity
Five Sundays beginning January 29 through April 2017
In the 10th year of the collaboration between Wilton Library and the Wilton Historical Society, the scholarly lecture series will focus on the global perspective and the United States' place in the world, specifically WWI and its aftermath. The five-part series also will examine art as an expression and maker of place, place determined by work, finding one's place when a technology defines a newer sense of identity, and the United States' identity today and in the future. Registration is strongly encouraged for this very popular series; please register separately for each lecture. Click here for all registration links and lecture information.
