Growing Up Modern
Ann Arbor, MI
a2modern & Bentley Historical Library at the University of Michigan
Sunday October 9, 2011 at 4pm
Mid-century Michigan enjoyed both a baby boom and a building boom. New homes for modern families distinguished Ann Arbor, among other places, where architects designed entire neighborhoods of distinctive, modernist residences. Thanks to the generosity of several of those prominent architects, many of the homes are now documented through a rich collection of original architectural drawings and photographs at the University of Michigan’s Bentley Historical Library. Come join us for a fun and informative afternoon featuring Ann Arbor native Peter Osler (Director of the Program of Landscape Architecture at Illinois Institute of Technology) as he recalls “Growing Up Modern.” The program includes a panel discussion and viewing of original architectural archives. Event will be hosted at the Bentley Historical Library at the University of Michigan. 1150 Beal Avenue Ann Arbor, Michigan.
