What our clients have to say...
The museum was great and Fred was fantastic. I will be rebooking him again, and I probably wont be waiting til Black History Month. I believe the knowledge he has and his lessons would do my campus good any time of year. I will be in touch about booking him again for the fall semester.

Yesterday was wonderful! Fred and his assistant was so professional, and knowledgeable. The students, faculty, and staff all enjoyed the exhibit, and they would love to see it again next year. You will hear from us again very soon to book the museum for next year. It is our hope that we make it a bigger event, and invite the community members within the Town of Canandaigua to attend as well.
