Staff from the Boundless Connections Technology Center were at the Strong Museum of Play to engage guests of all ages with technology during the museum’s Juneteenth celebration, Saturday, June 18, 2022.

“We had a great time meeting everyone at the Strong Museum,” Tchianna McPeak, Director of Operations – Programs, said. “We were honored to be a part of the event, celebrating this important day with our community.”

“This was also a great opportunity for us to introduce ourselves to the community outside of our tech center, since our style of engaging participants hands-on with tech fits perfectly with the museum’s hands-on style.”

The Juneteenth event is put on by The Strong, Rochester Area Community Foundation, and Greater Rochester Martin Luther King, Jr. Commission
