The previous art exhibit, The Month of the Young Child Art Exhibition, has also moved. It is currently in two locations at Century III Mall. These pieces have also been to a conference at the Penn Stater on early childhood education, the Opal Awards at the New Hazlett Theater and Art All Night. Below is a picture of the display at Century III Mall.
We had our last field trip of the year to the CREATE Lab. 27 elementary students from Wilkinsburg School District came on May 24 to participate in Can Pals and other Hear Me activities. These kids talked about changes they want to see in their community and many of them commented on the amount of garbage and violence in their neighborhoods. One student, when asked how he thinks the violence can be stopped in his neighborhood, spoke about the gun shop located on the main street and how removing this store might decease the violence. These stories are coming soon to Tell-Port; another reason to keep checking our site!
Remember, this blog is for all our Hear Me friends. Please feel free to blog about your Hear Me events or other Hear Me issues. We love hearing from all of you!
