Join your fellow SRG staff and your fellow members for this meaningful tour.
Join your fellow SRG staff and your fellow members for this informative and meaningful tour of the Historic Fairmount Waterworks and their POOL exhibit-A Social History of Segregation. POOL helps to illuminate a little-known history of segregated swimming in America and its connection to present-day drowning issues affecting Black communities. Weaving together history, art, storytelling, scholarship and place-based learning, this multi-disciplinary work explores the role of public pools in our communities with the goal of deepening understanding of the connection between water, social justice and public health.
