This double illustrated lecture by OHA curator of history Dennis Connors will look at two aspects of Syracuse history: Its rich legacy of brewing beer since the early 19th century and its reputation as a center in the early 20th century for the national Arts & Crafts Movement. This lecture reviews the story of Gustav Stickley, but also touches on the contributions of local architect Ward Wellington Ward, stained glass craftsman Henry Keck and the artists at Syracuse China.
