Night at the Museum part 2 – Some of history’s most famous men and women stopped in Bluffton briefly last week. They shared some of their career high points – and low points – with an enthusiastic audience of community residents.
There was Louis XIV, Cincinnatus, Shakespeare, Johannes Guttenberg, Rosa Parks, Empress Wu, Mozart, St. Catherine of Siena and many more.
The occasion was this spring’s Night at the Museum, hosted by Bluffton middle school students. Part 1 of this series featured eighth graders and their career tracks. Part 2 features photos of some of the world’s heavyweight, also known at Bluffton seventh graders.
The project involves cross-curriculum between language arts and social studies. The Icon photographed and talked with some of the outstanding guests, whose photos follow.
