The Great Labor Arts Exchange is an annual arts festival in Silver Spring, Maryland, which celebrates the labor history of the United States as well as preserves, advances and promotes the culture of the American labor movement.
Labor arts are “part of how we come together, how we find our unity, how we remind ourselves of our values, how we sustain ourselves through the hard times.”
