The Art History class took off for Italy last week.

It’s well over 4,000 miles from Poughkeepsie to Zurich and on to Florence but here’s the extra mile: Wayne created these books – in Florentine red – one for every student. It’s for notes,sketches and reference on the trip.

The sleeve at the back has a map of the city with their hotel marked. On the very European squared paper is a brief guide to the city’s art and architecture.

The group left on Thursday. By Saturday Bernadette had posted  pictures of the first day. And, as you can see, the notebooks are being put to work.
