A press event introduced the Exhibit with a row of very professional looking cameras and members of the media. I was pleased that a small camera was at the end of the row and I was able to film the event.

Joseph Torcella, President and CEO of the Constitution Center, introduced the Exhibit and the play provided by the American Venture Summer Camp.  2007Video/Intro1.wmv or 2007Video/Introduction.wmv
