The museum annotated education guides and tied the themes of several works of art in the exhibit to themes in “Fahrenheit 451,” the book chosen for this year’s Big Read program. Following the museum tour, the students watched a production of “1984” at Edison Theatre. Other public schools participating were Clayton and the City of St. Louis.
