Ghost In The Dream Garden
While a ghost plays the piano (what other possible explanation could there be?) we find The Dream Garden. Designed by Maxfield Parrish and constructed by Tiffany Studios the mosaic took over a year to complete. It is made up of over 100,000 individual hand cut glass tiles cast in over 260 different colors. When it was unveiled in 1916 it was the largest glass mural in the US, and remained so up until 2007. Nestled in the southeast corner of the Curtis Building on Washington Square, the Dream Garden is one of the hidden jewels of Philadelphia. Enjoy!

Magic Gardens in Philly is one of the coolest folk art installations and art spaces in any US city.

During our visit we were lucky enough to meet Isaiah Zagar himself and catch a quick interview with this visionary genius for the video.

EXPO – Magic of the White City (Narrated by Gene Wilder)
Narrated by Gene Wilder, EXPO – Magic of the White City brings the Chicago World’s Fair to life. Experience the world of 1893 through a cinematic visit to Chicago’s Columbian Exposition.
Subscribe for more great documentaries!
Nearly 28 million people visited the Fair. Dubbed the “White City,” it inspired future innovators like Henry Ford and Frank Lloyd Wright, unveiled the Ferris Wheel and Cracker Jack®, and, in many ways, marked the beginning of the 20th century. Many of the era’s greatest achievements in science, technology and culture were unveiled there. The grounds were designed by Frederick Law Olmsted, famous for his design of New York City’s Central Park, and constructed under the supervision of Daniel Burnham.
The Fair was an engineering marvel. On opening day, President Grover Cleveland depressed a golden telegraph key which sent the first courses of electricity throughout the Fair powering fountains, machines, electric railways and thousands of lights. It was the first use of electricity on such a massive scale.
In addition, fairgoers enjoyed the Midway Plaisance where a one-mile boulevard of fun offered camel riding and guilty pleasures such as belly dancing, street fighting and beer drinking. Against the backdrop of 1893’s troubles with workers’ rights, prejudice, discrimination and corruption, the World’s Columbian Exposition cast a brief ray of hope for the future of humanity.
Filmed in spectacular High-Definition, EXPO – Magic of the White City immerses viewers in one of the world’s biggest extravaganzas and one of the most unforgettable events in American history. There will never be another event like it… or will there?

Stolen Children: The Legacy of the Carlisle Indian School and Canadian Residential Schools
November 7, 2018
Program Introduced by KHC Fellow, Julio Meza
Speaker: Hayes P. Mauro, Associate Professor, Queensborough Community College, Art & Design Department
Short Films: Kent Monkman’s Brothers and Sisters, Released 2015, 3 mins and Stolen Children, Residential School Survivors Speak Out, Released 2015, 18 mins
Two short films based on original archival footage and the accounts of survivors of the Canadian residential schools will be screened. A talk will follow by Professor Mauro based on his book, The Art of Americanization at the Carlisle Indian School. He will speak about the social reformers, usually Christian evangelicals, who wished to Americanize Native Americans and African Americans, along with newer immigrants from southern and eastern Europe. This meant transforming them into culturally acceptable entities who looked, acted, dressed, and thought like an idealized middle class Anglo-American. Needless to say, this had ramifications for both race and gender definitions.
Part of the KHC/NEH 2018-19 Colloquium
