Downstream/Upstream: A Journey Through the Urban Water Cycle documents a two-week journey that 39 kids, ages 4-6, took to explore the infrastructure of water. On exhibit are the photographs, artists' books, maps, and diagrams that illustrate their exploration of the urban water cycle starting from a classroom sink to the Mississippi River — upstream and downstream. Jonee Kulman Brigham led a structured and creative collaborative project that allowed children to explore cultural narratives and issues of sustainability related to the flow of water.
Jonee Kulman Brigham is an architect and researcher at the Center for Sustainable Building Research in the College of Design, and an artist at Full Spring Studio.

Movie theater buildings played an important role in the experience of moviegoers, whether they lived in a small town in central Minnesota or a metropolitan area. The Hollywood "dream machine" often came to life in the lights and sounds of the theater building itself, and the new "streamlined deco" quickly became a popular style. This exhibit from the Northwest Architectural Archives showcases dozens of these by the Minneapolis architectural partnership of Liebenberg and Kaplan.
