Archive in Motion: The ATU Workers of Metro Transit, is a photography exhibition focusing on the lives of metro transit workers, featuring work done by MCAD faculty Leslie Grant, and photographer and poet Jeffery Skimp. The collection features transit workers who are members of the Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU) Local 1005, and is meant to showcase and represent the vital role workers play in making public transit possible for so many people.

The works included range from portraits of the union workers, as well as locations and items associated with their job's day-to-day tasks. The exhibit runs until November 9 and is on display at the East Side Freedom Library in St.Paul, MN.
