How Did We Get Here?: Labor & Work

Reeder's Alley Interpretive & Convention Center 101 Reeder's Alley, Helena, MT, United States

We often take “labor” and “work” as synonyms, describing an often-difficult process that’s required to “get by” in life, or even to “make our living.” Yet there’s also a strong contrast between the demanding-yet-fulfilling “work” and drudgery, as well as other complicated dances between labor and leisure, work and recreation, action and contemplation, “liberal” and “servile” pursuits. These complications have been viewed very differently across the centuries. In this installment of "How Did We Get Here?" we'll explore this and then some! Learn more & RSVP here.
