Class Series: Preservation Perspectives and Urban Archaeology

Facilitated by National Building Arts Center Executive Director, Michael Allen, this five-week class series will examine the multiverse of historic preservation practices in our world today. Relating to the themes of the Pulitzer’s fall exhibition Urban Archaeology: Lost Buildings of St. Louis, participants will explore topics such as community memory-keeping, the transmission of intangible heritages, oral histories, and activism against gentrification and displacement. Classes will meet each week at the museum and will include assigned readings, guest lectures, and open spaces for discussion. This class series is best for teens and adults.
