Excursion: History and Housing

February 2018

We journeyed to the Heinz History Center and spent time with an archivist in the Detre Library and Archives. The Archives has a rich collection that tell a story of our region’s history.

It was the final date for Shelter: Crafting a Safe Home at Society for Contemporary Craft. We joined in the celebration and saw a dance performance by Kaitlyn Flynn Goodwin and Emily V. Koch. The exhibition featured crafts related to issues of housing displacement and insecurity. So we explored those themes in our journals.
