Program Description

Event Details

Historian Jim Gibbons will take you back to the 1930s when the age of radio made worldwide communication possible. Hit with The Great Depression, many families struggled to put food on the table and clothing on their backs. Work opportunities were scarce. Meanwhile, Swing music increased in popularity and slowly became more popular than the previous decade of Jazz. Filled with famous figures such as Amelia Earhart, Salvador Dali, F.D.R. and Mohandas Gandhi, the 1930s were a fascinating decade you will not want to miss.
