Forman unveiled her exhibit CHANGE, which would go on to become a permanent exhibit aboard the Endurance. Guests who posted to their social accounts using a custom hashtag entered for a chance to win a print of Forman’s work. Featured event speakers included Lindblad’s Founder, Sven Lindblad and National Geographic’s George Stone.
