2023 EXHIBIT
Why We Work. Daily Bread, Dynamic Times
An exhibit on the value of work
Economic and societal changes have led to increased questioning about the purpose of working. The “Great Resignation” and “Quiet Quitting” have been in the headlines and seem to indicate a dynamic time with new questions. In many ways, these times seem unprecedented, and yet in 1981, St. John Paul II wrote, “Work is one of these aspects, a perennial and fundamental one, one that is always relevant and constantly demands renewed attention and decisive witness.” In the exhibit, Why We Work, several witnesses highlight what is true and timeless in front of these new questions.
