Smithsonian 175th Film Fest: Looking at the Future
Thursday, November 18, 2021 - 5:00 AM
What will the future hold? We can’t predict it, but we do try to shape it—and so have those who came before us. As part of our ongoing Smithsonian 175th Film Fest series, we will screen Yesterday’s Tomorrows: Visions of the Future on Film, featured in a 1984 National Museum of American History exhibit that examined how past visions of the future continue to impact our present and inspire even further futures. Join Smithsonian Libraries and Archives conservator William Bennett on November 18 at 5 p.m. ET to explore retro-futurism and get excited for the Smithsonian’s upcoming celebration of future-looking innovation in FUTURES, the inaugural exhibition of the newly reopening historic Arts and Industries Building.
