"Campaigning for President: New York and the American Election" Exhibition
The Museum of the City of New York
This event has ended.
Coinciding with the 2008 election and providing insight into New York's often pivotal role in American electoral politics, Campaigning for President: New York and the American Election will be on view at the Museum of the City of New York. The exhibition—covering presidential politics from the inauguration of George Washington on lower Manhattan's Wall Street, to the current volatile and unpredictable campaign—will feature selections from the nation's largest and most comprehensive collection of campaign artifacts alongside objects from the Museum's collection. The exhibition will examine shifts and continuities in political campaigning and illuminate the very public and participatory nature of American democracy.
