NYC Blog Day 1

From Program Director Eve Khan: Our trip got off to a great start! Everyone was on time and seemed eager to get going! The bus ride to NYC was a little snug but it did not stop this amazing group of Art in the City superstars from being excited. Shout out to our awesome bus driver for stopping and at a rest stop that had a Dippin’ Dots machine.. Instant smiles! The group perked up after that and I came to the conclusion that we need one of those machines on campus! 

Here are some of the photos from Day 1. Enjoy!
