Reminder: Architecture Walking Tour on Oct.22

 

Architecture Walking Tour:
Tacoma Through a Documentary Camera Lens

Saturday, October 22, 1 pm
Margaret Bourke White’s visual style and fascination with poverty and progress might well be associated with Tacoma in the 1930’s and 40’s. Her unflinching documentary style seems well suited to our city and its streetscape before the coming of the shopping mall and suburbs. Michael Sullivan, University of Washington Tacoma Adjunct Faculty, will lead a walking exploration Tacoma’s architecture and streetscape with a focus on what her lens would have seen in the era of the Depression, World War II and the early prosperity of the late 40’s and 50’s. Cost: members $5, non-members $7.
