  Get to Know Us
  The Wolfsonian–FIU is a museum that explores the inventive and provocative character of the modern world. Through objects and design, we reveal how the past influences the present and shapes the future.

Into the Stacks: 1939

Date: Friday, November 22, 2019
Time: 7–9pm
Location: The Wolfsonian–FIU @ 1001 Washington Avenue

It’s 1939. Gone with the Wind and The Wizard of Oz hold moviegoers under their spell, regular TV broadcasts begin in America, Britain declares war on Germany, two world fairs enchant the masses—and Wolfsonian founder Micky Wolfson is born. Time travel with Bookleggers Library director Nathaniel Sandler and Wolfsonian research curator Lea Nickless as they get to the bottom of objects (and classic cocktails!) from the year that changed everything.

Presented in conjunction with Sandler’s Knight Foundation-funded project, Crypt Cracking. Drinks available for purchase.

Free and open to the public | THE RSVP LIST IS FULL! Email programs@thewolf.fiu.edu for wait list.
