Preparing for Summer at The City Reliquary

Last Saturday's Member Experience

New Exhibit Installation

*Summer of Skate* Backyard Programming
**A Member's Experience at Dead Horse Bay**

Last Saturday, thirty members of The City Reliquary traveled south to Dead Horse Bay alongside Department of Sanitation Anthropologist-in-Residence [Robin Nagle](https://robinnagle.com/). Attendees were given an overview of this historic garbage site and allowed time to explore on their own.

Member Experiences are a way of providing insight into the places, people, and inspirations behind the City Reliquary's special exhibits. Interested in invites to future excursions? Membership starts at just $25.
