Salon Lab is an exciting feature of our Connections auction. It is a series of dinners, each organized around an interesting and exciting topic. These evenings will take place in a lovely setting and feature members of the Lab school community who are nationally and internationally-recognized experts in those topics. These conversations about important current issues promise to be stimulating, informative, and thought-provoking - a celebration of Lab's intellectual curiosity.
