RACE: Are We So Different? Is a traveling exhibition that is being hosted by Mayo Clinic and the Rochester Public Library
as part of a cross-country tour of museums, science centers, and community areas.
This exhibit will help communities understand what race is and what it is not, and will offer individual visitors critical tools to recognize race and racism in their own lives.
The exhibit will be on display at the Rochester Public Library May 17 – Sept. 4.
Your help is needed to make the exhibit a success!
