Vedet Coleman and Erin Smith, Summer
2005 Interns
"As interns, we made a commitment
to the Reginald F. Lewis Museum of Maryland African American
History and Culture, the Collections and Exhibitions Department,
the Baltimore Chapter of the Girl Friends, Inc., and finally
the public, to complete this project without using the museum‚s
resources for personal gain. Our mission was to commemorate
the 75th Anniversary of the Baltimore Chapter of the Girl
Friends Inc. and to educate the public about the historic
importance and the many accomplishments that members of
this organization contributed to the Baltimore community."
