G. Holmes Braddock 25th anniversary exhibition

This school year marks the 25th anniversary of G. Holmes Braddock Senior High School.  To mark the anniversary of the school, students, faculty, staff and community members participated on curating an exhibition, in honor of the namesake of the school.

On May 20, 2015, G. Holmes Braddock Senior High School celebrated with an exhibition opening, honoring Mr. Braddock.  Dignitaries and friends of Mr. Braddock gathered as the gallery had a ceremonial ribbon cutting and tour of the gallery.  Following the exhibition guests were invited to view student artwork.

The process took several months to curate with the help of FIU Curatorial graduate student, Isis Ellis.  Students volunteered their time and efforts to put together the exhibition in a timely manner for our May opening.

Special thanks to:
Isis Ellis, graduate candidate, curatorial museum education program;
