ABOUT THE TALK
Join us for a special Thanksgiving edition of Sunday Stories exploring the bounty of midcentury Thanksgiving food and design. Beginning in the 1930s and 40s, émigré architects and designers assimilated into creative communities throughout the United States, forging a design movement that celebrated an eclectic blend of cultures. With the emergence of midcentury modernism in postwar America, Thanksgiving took on a new meaning, look, and flavor; and the movement's iconic design sensibilities can be witnessed to this day from New York skyscrapers to Midwestern Thanksgiving tables.
