Trip to the Guggenheim Museum
Mr. Rosenblum, Ms. Berk and Ms. Barkin facilitated a trip to the Guggenheim Museum on March 15th. They saw the exhibit "Going Dark" which dealt with how marginalized people are often ignored and unseen. This subject provoked much conversation and interesting discussion.
