Visitor Information Given Out on Mall
Close
PrintInformation Specialist John Bender begins giving Smithsonian visitors information from a flower cart loaned by the Office of Horticulture on the National Mall. The project, the idea of Maria Heasly of the Visitor Information and Associates' Reception Center, entailed Bender wheeling the cart around the Mall answering Smithsonian-related questions by visitors.
