Suspended Over Time: Brooklyn Bridge 125th Anniversary

Exhibition Laboratory’s Teen-Organized Exhibit
Students from Brooklyn Technical High School, Cobble Hill High School of American Studies, The Packer Collegiate Institute and Saint Ann's School learned about the process of curating an exhibit from start to finish. With the help of Brooklyn Historical Society staff, consultants and scholars, students mined the collection for art and artifacts pertaining to the Brooklyn Bridge. Through extensive background research and collaboration the students curated, co-designed and wrote the text for this exhibit, which illuminates the Bridge's history.

Exhibition Laboratory, an after-school program is made possible through the generous funding of Martha A. & Robert S. Rubin, Timothy Bradley and the Peter Jay Sharp Foundation. Additional support provided by Astoria Federal Savings.
