The United Victorian Workers Union was an ad-hoc collective of artists, activists and academics that came together in the Winter of 2005 to correct the historical misrepresentations of Troy, New York's Victorian Stroll. The future of the Union is uncertain but we hope to collectively and individually continue to imbue public memory with a more complex understanding of our past, present, and future. (Organized by Bettina Escauriza, Dara Greenwald, Ryan Jenkins.
