TEASE III - Boone, How Space

Our reliable partner is Prof. Dr. Thomas Pegelow Kaplan who has seen to the prefect setting in a vacant renovated building in the old district of the town, called HOW Space. Perfect for our exhibition – with a lot of enthusiasm and innovativeness the place was decorated and readied for the big event in the cent.
