Speaking of History... United: The Hidden Story of the Humble Duplex

Come join us for a viewing of “United: the Hidden History of the Humble Duplex", an original short film from Director Anita Kwan and the Affordable Housing Alliance of Central Ohio.

United tells the powerful story of how the modest duplex emerged as a symbol of middle-class strength and mobility at Columbus’ turn of the century. As segregation divided the country, the duplex was targeted and often outlawed throughout the region. But today, a new generation is reclaiming this architectural icon and reviving it as a tool for growth, wealth and individuality. Join us for a screening and guided discussion with the Affordable Housing Alliance of Central Ohio and staff from the State Historic Preservation Office. Included with museum admission. Ohio History Connection members enjoy free admission.
