“URBAN ARCHEOLOGY” AT THE PULITZER ARTS FOUNDATION
October 5, 2023 @ 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM
Thursday October 05 at 10:00 AM
3716 Washington Ave. 63108 Admission and parking are free.
Drawn from the rich collection of the National Building Arts Center, Urban Archaeology brings together salvaged architectural elements from landmark buildings, residential homes, and neighborhood institutions built in St. Louis between 1840 and 1950. The artifacts on display represent important histories of material innovation, labor, and the everyday lives of the people who inhabit the city. The exhibition sheds light on the city’s history, revealing complicated legacies of power, wealth, and neglect that shape our experience of the built environment and daily life.
After viewing the exhibit, we will drive over to Vito’s Sicilian Pizzeria and Ristorante for an optional lunch. Vito’s is at 3515 Lindell Blvd 63103.
