Faces and Friends: West Marin Children in the 1930s

Volume XXV, Number 1 - Spring 2023

Following a long run of the exhibit about the 52-year-old Dance Palace Community and Cultural Center, we now present a heartwarming view of children of the 1930s as seen in school group portraits. By selecting individuals and small groups in the portraits and isolating the images for more focused impact, we can look into their faces and feel a sense of the life of a child ninety years ago. See the article starting on the next page, and the other interesting stories on the pages that follow.
