In the early to mid-20th century, streamlined design— exemplified by trains, planes, automobiles, and ocean liners—came to symbolize progress and modernity. In this presentation, Wolfsonian chief librarian Frank Luca will focus on the confluence of Art Deco design and streamlined form, drawing from children’s books, printed travel promotional materials, and other decorative design objects from The Wolfsonian Library and museum collection.

$10–$15 | Tickets

Organized by Wolfsonian-FIU with Miami Design Preservation League and presented as part of Art Deco Weekend.
