    1. We have not retained any information in a file regarding the presentation. If you are interested in learning more about the art exhibit, click on their link: http://www.n-cap.org/portfolio/take-care/ The panel of presenters while the exhibit was at UW-Green Bay commented based upon their experience in the field. Best of luck.
