SUMMARY:You Are Here
DESCRIPTION:Stop by the American Geographical Society Library on the third floor in the east wing of the Golda Meir Library to explore its latest exhibit You Are Here. \nYou Are Here explores the unique relationship between regional and global transit maps and the socio-cultural identity of their subjects. Transit maps can be utilitarian\, functioning as navigational tools\, but they can also be aspirational\, signs of cities and nations attempting to shift perceptions of their identity. The individual maps in this exhibition serve as a window into the histories of the places they represent as well as the history of transit cartography as a whole. With a wider view\, the evolution of transit maps demonstrates how a transportation system can become synonymous with a city or nation’s identity\, reflecting its change over time\, spearheading cartographic innovations\, or reifying an entirely new vision for space and place. \nYou Are Here is on view until February 2027. The AGSL is open Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

SUMMARY:Bird of Hope for Peace
DESCRIPTION:Eva Petrič’s Bird of Hope for Peace (2023-2025) is a bird woven from 1\,000 lace roses crafted by artisans in 11 countries. The expansive\, colorful artwork aims to convey a message unity\, reminding the viewer that hope is what carries peace forward. The bird is on display now through Nov. 19 in the Daniel M. Soref Learning Commons near the Grind Coffee Shop on the first floor of the Golda Meir Library. \nPetrič gathered the individual lace roses and laid them on the grounds of a former Nazi concentration camp located along the Slovenian-Austrian border. As she arranged the lace\, the shape of a bird emerged\, and she brought them together into the Bird of Hope for Peace. The bird was first presented at the 2025 Idrija Lace Festival in Idrija\, Slovenia. It then journeyed to Vienna\, Austria\, New York City\, and\, most recently\, Milwaukee City Hall. The Bird of Hope for Peace‘s display in Milwaukee was made possible through a partnership between Petrič and the Milwaukee Slovenian Arts Council\, Milwaukee’s Department of City Development\, and the International Institute of Wisconsin. Next\, the bird will be shown at the International Institute of Wisconsin’s Holiday Folk Fair at the Wisconsin State Fair Park from Nov. 20 to Nov. 22. \nThe artwork is free to view and open to the public. Bird of Hope for Peace can be viewed from both inside and outside the Golda Meir Library.

SUMMARY:March on Milwaukee
DESCRIPTION:March on Milwaukee features materials from the Archives and Special Collections Department and the American Geographical Society Library that provide a window into Milwaukee’s civil rights history.

The efforts of these activists and their opponents are vividly documented\, and a selection of maps\, photographs\, and artifacts are available to view now through March 31 in the fourth floor exhibition gallery of the Golda Meir Library. \nThis exhibit is free to view and open to the public. For more information about March on Milwaukee\, explore the UWM Libraries’ digitized primary sources.
