160 YEARS OF WALKING: 1865-2025

A photograph 6 people rehearsing in a room with a wooden floor, white walls, and a black ceiling with florescent lights. A woman with dark skin tone wearing a denim long sleeve shirt, dark pants, and orange sneakers sits at a black upright piano, facing away from the piano towards the five other people in the room as she speaks to them and gestures with her hands in the air. At the back of the room are three people. A woman with dark long hair and medium skin tone wears a sleeveless shirt and white shorts and looks downward. Next to her are two men with light skin tone and white hair. One man wears a dark short sleeve shirt and pants and a black Kangol style hat. He holds papers in his right hand as he listens to the woman at the piano. Next to him the man wears a dark blue short sleeve shirt and khaki pants and holding an open portfolio in his hands. In the foreground of the photo a man and a woman with dark skin tone listen to the woman at the piano. The man has short dark hair and wears a black and blue 3/4 baseball style tee and capri length shorts and white Nike shoes with a dark blue swoosh logo. The woman has straight hair in a ponytail on top of her head and wears a gray t-shirt and faded blue jeans and black Crocs on her feet.
