  • On a sunny day — starting in the morning the sun will stream in on the right wall of the space and slowly make its way to the left wall.

  • We ask that if you want the stands and paper roll moved, please have 2 people help. BUT YOU MUST MOVE IT BACK TO THE ORIGINAL POSITION WHEN DONE.

    All other items can be freely moved.
