Imagination, Knowledge and Selfless Service Displayed at Cushing Memorial Library & Archives
Alice in the Archives
Two artists explored the meaning of understanding in “Alice in the Archives: The Changing Shape of Knowledge” from June to October. The artists, Meredith Tromble and Laura Hyunjee Kim, viewed the curiosity, courage and creativity of research as a powerful means for society to grapple with a world that often feels like the frightening, yet exciting place portrayed in “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” by Lewis Carroll.
Mapping Victory
From November to March, “Mapping Victory: WWII U.S. Service Unit Maps” displays soldiers’ wartime experiences through colorful maps that are part of Cushing’s military history collection and items from Aggies who served in the war. Troops created the maps as they moved through Europe.
