Now Showing until August

All Blood is Red is our new, groundbreaking exhibit that introduces the subject of INTEGRATION - our theme for 2013.  We begin with military integration and the realization that troops depend on one another.  When fatally wounded, the blood that oozes from soldiers of all races and sexes is red.  Blood transfusions do not depend on the race or sex of the donor or donee.  If in the extreme case of war integration is possible, why not in every day life?

Free and open to the public.
