Join the DC Preservation League and The Living New Deal Project for an hour-long webinar about New Deal art and architecture in Washington, DC. This year is the 90th anniversary of the New Deal, a sweeping series of programs, projects, and public works that contributed heavily to America’s development in the 1930s. Learn from Living New Deal Director Dr. Richard Walker and bring your questions about public art and public works in DC.
