The Arts & Crafts movement was an Anglo-American design reform movement that took place from the 1860s to the 1920s. Founded in Boston in 1897, it spread across the country, influencing everything from architecture and interiors to graphics, jewelry, and clothing. This illustrated presentation will highlight the movement’s roots in Boston, its spread to Detroit and beyond throughout the state.
Speaker: Beverly Brandt, Arizona State University 

 

MUG: Mac User's Group

Meets every Tuesday evening, 5-6 PM in the Armstrong Conference Room

If you have a MAC computer and need some assistance, this is a great way to get it. Participants help each other, answer questions, and give tech support to local users. If you have a laptop, bring it along. If you have a desktop, that's OK too, one of the members brings a desktop to use as a demo.
