The trammg we will be doing during this period is cntlcal to your ability to use our new space and the new art works. So come prepared to share your skills, knowledge and expertise and to learn from other docents. As we bramstorm new ideas and share techniques we have been usmg, I will be taking notes and recording all of your creative ideas. Each team's contributions will be compiled into an Ideas Book to be shared with the other teams. I was inspired to do this from many comments from docents about how they wish they knew what other Daily Teams were domg.
