For the past five years, “Bread & Roses” has served as an annual celebration of the arts in political action and in the lives of workers. This year, “Bread & Roses” will feature as its centerpiece a CHORAL THEATER PERFORMANCE IN TWO ACTS: “SONGS OF SOLIDARITY, VOICES OF SOCIAL JUSTICE,” composed by Chris Hayden using the poetry and theater written by area artists and workers over the last five years of the exhibition. In addition, there will be visual art on display from the last five years.
