MoMA Workers Protest For Higher Wages Outside Museum Fundraiser

This isn’t the first time MoMA’s unionized workers protested for their rights. In a scene very similar to that of 2015, “chanting ‘Modern art, ancient wages’” and ‘Shiny new building, shabby old wages,’ about 100 members and supporters of UAW (United Automobile, Aerospace, and Agricultural Implement Workers) Local 2110 — the union that represents some 250 workers at MoMA including curators, librarians, store staff, members services workers, graphic designers, and catalogue editors — took the opportunity of the museum’s biggest annual fundraiser to draw attention to their fight for a contract that protects their health care, job security, and wages.”
