Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

This artifical collection contains information on Brooklyn Museum staff events, activities, and demonstrations outside of work, or loosely related to work. It continues to expand and grow.

Of special interest is the 1936 newsletter and press release that were created by the Communist Party Unit of the Brooklyn Museum which advocated for the Museum to pay for guards uniforms, as well as for staff to join anti-war and anti-fascist organizations. The newsletter was called Museum Worker and had at least 2 issues. We only have the January 1936 issue.
