Faces and Friends: West Marin Children in the 1930s
This exhibit of class photographs show some of our local elementary school pupils as they were in the 1930s at Black School in Point Reyes Station, Inverness School and Marshall School. The photographs are clear and sharp and the faces pop put at the viewer. We chose to isolate groups and individuals to give a closer, and less cluttered look at their faces and relationships. Look into their eyes and maybe you will see their future, their past, their home life. Past Exhibits
