<p><strong>A Sensible and Human Bohemia: The Utopian Moment in American Arts and Crafts, 1895–1903</strong></p>
<p>At the turn of the 19th century across America, intentional communities of artists in Rose Valley, Byrdcliffe, and Roycroft were havens for handcraft, worker dignity, and the promotion of beautiful art for the masses, and were works of art in themselves—total sensory installations of the Arts and Crafts Movement—that stood as model community-workshops, suggesting that there could be an alternative to brutal industrialization. The talk is presented by Thomas A. Guiler, Director of Museum Affairs, Oneida Community House. <em>Included with admission.</em></p>
