We invite you to attend the opening of our new exhibit, "Hunters Point through the eyes of her son - the photography of Frank Carrado." The opening will be on Saturday, September 29, 2007 at 1 PM.
Mr. Carrado will be with us to share his personal reflections and stories of growing up in the Hunters Point community. In addition, he will show a video that was filmed as they were tearing down the old bridge on Vernon Boulevard. This short film captures a moment in time as the neighbors comment on what Hunters Point means to them.
