A Place for Politics, Protest, & Performance: Exploring the Hidden Histories of Hill Auditorium

A Place for Politics, Protest, & Performance: Exploring the Hidden Histories of Hill Auditorium

Hill Auditorium is an iconic part of U-M’s campus, but it is much more than just a site for musical performances and university events. Since its opening a century ago it has hosted a wide array of speeches, concerts and protests both welcomed and opposed by members of the university community. Join us to hear from the Inclusive History Project’s Hill Auditorium Research Team as they share their discoveries, future plans, and the ongoing struggle to make Hill truly an auditorium “For Everyone.”
