- Summary
- "The 1903 Syracuse, New York, Arts and Crafts Exhibition is a signature event in the Movement's historical canon. But were it not for what else happened, the exhibit could be dismissed as self-serving, shameless shilling for Gustav Stickley's hometown United Crafts furniture enterprise. Thanks to an unprecedented extension to and the context of a second venue in Rochester, the exhibit's, United Crafts', and the Movement's credibility were enhanced by the halo afforded by the not-for-profit world of higher education. Why did the exhibit travel to Rochester? What and who motivated the move from the first venue to the second? Whose interests were served? And how was the connection between United Crafts and Mechanics Institute formed, such that the unique traveling exhibition occurred?"--
