Welcome to the Exhibit

During the week of 4/26 - 4/30/2010, an exhibit called What Does Your America Look Like: A Look Back to See the Present is on display in the Highland Learning Center. Using artwork, music, and literature of the 1930s, the exhibit explores different artists' view of America. After viewing the exhibit, participants are invited to write and draw about their views of America today.

Enjoy!
