No Limits opening

The reception for the No Limits show of Haitian art was held at the Library Gallery Thursday evening and was a great success, attracting a range of college staff, students and visitors (and, toward the end of the evening, a troop of Girl Scouts). Distinguished guests included San Carlos Institute President Rafael Penalver, former Miami Herald Keys staffer Susana Bellido Cummings, bookbinder/conservator Bob Muens, Mark Hedden (aka Florida's Most Powerful Birding Columnist (TM)) and two well-traveled ladies from New Jersey. A highlight of the evening was a talk about Haiti from FKCC's own Rev. Ebenson Michelin. Here are some photos of the event, courtesy of Library Specialist Nancy Klingener and the Diva Vogue.

No Limits is up until April 3 -- stop by and see it!
