Life and Art of Henry Dispirito with Ashley Hopkins-Benton

Henry DiSpirito emigrated from Italy in 1921, and found a nurturing home in Utica, NY. A stonemason and bricklayer by trade, he found his calling in the direct-carving style of sculpture and became an accomplished painter. Ashley Hopkins-Benton, Senior Historian and Curator of Social History at the New York State Museum, will discuss his life and art.
