Bicentennial Volunteers
2022
Cecily Culver, Professor of Art at the Rochester Institute of Technology and Paul Negrito Noel play enacting Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel painting of the hands of God and Adam touching with copies of Frederick Douglass' hands.
The volunteer environment was one of playfulness and hard work. Volunteers had the option of helping any amount of time they could- even for half an hour. People of all walks of life came, representing how much Douglass is loved in the Rochester. NY and beyond.
