The collections Political Circus and Political Sideshow focuses on the Presidential Campaigns of 2008 and 2016 where identity has played a part in the rhetoric of some candidates, but more so in some of the general public's response to various candidates. Through the acquisition of popular consumer items produced for the Presidential campaigns, Caputi organized two exhibitions teasing out issues to do with gender, racism, identity, class, sexuality.
This collection consists of the professional records of Dr. Richard D. Garrity, including those from his tenure with the Environmental Protection Commission of Hillsborough County (EPC), Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), and City of Tampa.
