Event Details Name Description

This exhibition highlights artworks created under the Works Progress Administration (WPA), tracing how President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal relief program shaped artists’ portrayals of American life and brought federally sponsored works into various institutions including the Blanton. Through close looking and conversation, we will make meaningful connections to the works of art on display in our latest Paper Vault Exhibition. Learn more about  Art in Every Corner: The Works Progress Administration (1935-1943)  on the dedicated web page.

Please arrive at least 15 minutes before the start of the tour. Our tours can accommodate a maximum of 25 people on a first come, first serve basis. Please check-in with our Visitor Services Desk to secure your place.
