is an ongoing documentary film series presented in collaboration with WPBT-Channel 2.

Thursday, June 25, 7pm
THE CRASH OF 1929 (2004, USA, PBS American Experience Series, written by Ronald H. Blumer, 58 min, English, color and b/w, DVD)—In 1929, the economy was booming, the stock market was flourishing, and predictions of permanent prosperity abounded. Then, of course, came the crash. This documentary is told largely through the descendants of the financial wizards who helped create the boom. Free.

Think, Shop, and Eat at The Dynamo Museum Shop and Café!

Stop by The Dynamo Museum Shop and Café for some unusual gifts and creative food this week. The Dynamo Museum Shop offers a selection of carefully selected, unconventional gifts, books, and films, largely inspired by The Wolfsonian's collection of modern objects from 1885-1945. The Dynamo Café features a sophisticated menu in a casual and artfully designed setting, also inspired by the themes of the museum's collection. For questions contact 305.535.2680 or paola@thewolf.fiu.edu.
