With the last two months devoted to the Bee Bath Buy Bath campaign, it seemed fitting to share a few seconds of some of our buzzing busy volunteers at work here in the Bath Freight Shed. The downtown shopping promotion ends March 31; new exhibits here are in development and will be revealed later in the spring. And, no, not expecting any videography awards. 😉
