Instruments of Change with Ruth Greenfield
This remote event provided an opportunity to connect with Ruth Greenfield, a Miami icon and true powerhouse in arts education with a strong connection to RE. Ruth is best known for her work at her Fine Arts Conservatory, where her insistence on racial equality in a time of segregation in the 1950s made a difference in the lives of countless children and families. She was joined on the virtual stage by four of her children – Charles Greenfield ’68, Timothy Greenfield-Sanders ’70, Alice Greenfield ’74 and Frank Greenfield – and retired Miami-Dade County Judge Wendell Graham ’74, a conservatory student who later became the first Black student at the Ransom School.
