Everywhere or Nowhere: Frank Lloyd Wright's Broadacre City

[MOman2]

In 1935, Frank Lloyd Wright mounted an exhibit on a project he called Broadacre City, which proposed radical changes to cities and how we live in them. A veritable Trojan horse that challenged the very urbanity of the space in which it was installed, Broadacre City called for widespread decentralization whereby communities would be based on small-scale farming and manufacturing, local government, and property ownership.
Jennifer Gray, director of the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation’s Taliesin Institute, will discuss Broadacre City when she delivers the Joanne and Alan Kohn Lecture. The lecture is presented by the Frank Lloyd Wright House in Ebsworth Park.

The lecture does not yet seem to appear on SLAM's website.
I wanted to register for it on Zoom, but could not find it.

Picked up my physical tickets and they informed me that the zoom hookup sign up is being readied and will be available soon

The lecture now appears on their calendar but I don't find a zoom link.
Perhaps one will appear closer to the date.

The museum photo of the ventilator is welcome, though the choice of display (?) renders the complex design largely illegible. I suppose this prevents ready reproduction (could that be the motive, rather than accident ?) for what should be an important new image of Wright's early graphic work.

The speaker stated that the Broadacre city model will be on display in 2024 I presume at MOMA?

Thank You
