In September 1985, almost 80,000 fans packed Memorial Stadium on the Illinois campus to hear the first Farm Aid concert. Over 50 musical acts came together to raise awareness of the economic crisis facing American family farms. Our exhibit curator will offer a guided look at the exhibit commemorating Farm Aid's 40th anniversary.
