The United Electrical Workers Union (U.E.) has entered into a sale for their building at 37 South Ashland Avenue. The historic murals therein, painted in 1974 by John Pittman Weber and Jose Guerrero, are an important part of the labor movement and the mural art scene in Chicago. While efforts to move the murals, or at least a significant part of them, are ongoing, this is likely to be your last chance to see the whole work in the form it was planned and painted.
ILHS has arranged a tour... one of the last… for members and friends who want to see the murals in their original space and context.
JOIN US Saturday, FEB. 10TH at 12 noon for a FREE one-hour tour led by Carl Rosen, U.E. President and expert on the murals and their meaning.
