[vvp] Field trip to the Museum of Moving Image

On February 28, 2008, we paid a visit to the Museum of Moving Image for the first time this year. It was good timing on our part because starting next month, the museum will be under construction for a major change, and therefore closed to the public for a year or so, until they re-open with brand new facilities and exhibits! We got to see all three floors of the museum, and by the time the tour was over, most did not want to leave. wink.gif

The teens had a fabulous time and we want to thank Maggie and Chris again at the museum for their wonderful hospitality and generosity.

In the end, Maggie presented us with printed flipbooks that the teens created during their tour, and we presented her with a brand new GK-VVP shirt to thank her for her time.

Watch a short video from our visit:

That looks like a very neat place to visit
