I had never even done a digital presentation prior to all of this.”Įl-Hakim is the founder and curator of the Black History 101 Mobile Museum, a collection of over 10,000 historical artifacts and collectibles, related to topics ranging from slavery to current hip-hop culture, that has seen the inside of hundreds of classrooms and boardrooms. “I’ve been to 41 states and over 500 different institutions,” he says. Things improved a bit in 2021 but he’s still running a mix of virtual and live showings. His in-person exhibitions were replaced with Facebook Live and Zoom presentations. His 10-year run of hopping on and off planes with bustling suitcases full of African-American memorabilia stopped suddenly in 2020 (along with everything else) due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Khalid el-Hakim has finally found a sense of normalcy again, now that it’s 2022. There is a container for donations, but for those families on a budget (and even if you're not), it's an excellent outing for the day.Dr. The day's event was run by volunteers, who were very knowledgeably, patient, and kind. The farm is part of the Mercer County Park System, so there is no entrance fee. We bought the maple syrup (so delicious) and honey, both produced on property. They had very strict control, only granting one or two families entrance at a time. We ended our stay with a visit to the gift shop. The grounds are beautiful, and we walked a large portion of the property. This is the time when the sap is running, so we were able to see and smell active production of syrup. My family also visited the Sugar Shack and heard a very thorough explanation of turning sap into maple syrup. The veterinarian discussed and demonstrated horse dental care, as well as administering and explaining inoculations. He was extremely knowledgeable and patient. For the first time, we saw horses being shoed by the farrier. The special event for the weekend was the animal care. It is in a gorgeous location, so peaceful and perfectly maintained. On a beautiful Saturday, my family visited the farm.
