Take a deep breath and join us at this Saturday afternoon Art in the Lab at the Dobbs Ferry Campus of Mercy College overlooking the majestic Hudson River. We are super excited about this Art in the Lab, devoted to respiration in honor of the Great American Smoke Out.  

This pulmonary edition will feature guest speaker Dr. Anne Sutherland and focus on the link between structure and function in lungs.  Dr. Sutherland will discuss and present a variety of clinical imaging techniques to inspire an afternoon of low key drawings and investigations.  As always, the event is free, but space is limited.  You must RSVP to reserve your space at the microscope.  Basic art supplies are provided, but feel free to bring your own.
