SUMMARY:Labor\, War in Asia and the Lessons of the Comfort Women

DESCRIPTION:Tour with Gray Brechin and Harvey Smith \nJoin Gray Brechin and Harvey Smith as they travel through history on a bus tour of sites built by the New Deal’s “alphabet soup” agencies. You will learn about the major contribution government-paid workers made during the depression- era New Deal programs.

The building features historic WPA frescoes created by Lucien Labaudt in the 1930’s. The artwork captures the flavor of San Francisco in that era in a style of the Arts and Crafts movement. Fans of the style\, and Art Deco will appreciate the WPA works which allowed art projects like this to exist during such hard times..
