Cayuga Museum of History and Art

1925: A Century Retrospective
2025-02-13 18:00 - 19:00 UTC | Carriage House Theater, 203 Genesee St. (rear), Auburn, NY, 13021, United States
The year 1925 was a time of massive change for the world, with some of the most impactful events of the time directly connected to Auburn. That year, with the help of Case Research Lab technology, the first successful television pictures were transmitted. Benito Mussolini’s dictatorship formally began in 1925 and his speeches were later broadcast in theaters using the Fox-Case Movietone system. These events and many more took place in an era known as the “Roaring Twenties” which brought jazz and cultural change to the forefront of society. Join Cayuga Museum Curator, Haley Boothe, as she explores the work and life of Theodore Case and his associates one hundred years ago.
Admission to this program is on a pay what you wish basis.
