Agnes reception area: Before & After (not quite - "in progress" really). Team Agnes was lucky enough to get a tour of the demolition and it is EPIC. We'll continue to post process images over the course of Agnes Reimagined - we're excited to have you along for this ride!

Whatever you're doing this long weekend, we hope this image from Agnes's collection by Christiane Sybille Pflug, Beach on Ward's Island (Beach Scene with Swimmer, Sailboat and Tugboat), 1968, makes you feel the sun on your face and the sand between your toes. ☀️ ❤️
