Italian Immigrant Stone Workers in Wisconsin
The art, culture, and politics of northern Italian stone carvers impacted Wisconsin buildings and brought about mutual aid societies, neighborhood houses in Madison, Milwaukee and more. Randy Croce, University of Minnesota Labor Education Services, will show a portion of his documentary, "If Stone Could Speak," and will detail the impressive carvings at the Wisconsin Historical Society and the state capitol buildings. A catered Italian dinner precedes the program.
