This Halloween, Wagner College's Learning Community 3 (LC 3) "Ghost Hunters: Haunting in Art and Theatre" invites the campus community to three ghost tours as part of its experiential learning. LC 3 links studio art with the art of theatre and utilizes field trips to experience art and theatre in New York City. The learning community has spent the semester reading plays and making artwork that thematically links to ideas of haunting — whether by memory, ghosts, apparitions, spirits, or ancestors.
Join for any or all of the tours. Contact professors Felicia Ruff and Jennifer Toth if you have any questions.
