Mosaic Art Camp

June 21^st – 24^th 1 – 4:00

Objective: Using art to remember the past well, looking at the reality of the present and seeing the hope of the future together.

Employing the art of painting and breaking tiles, students will have a chance to express their beliefs, explore the value of the past, present and future, and examine the roles they play in their community.  Students will have the opportunity to beautify our neighborhood, as the stepping stones they create will become permanent fixtures in the community garden across the street.

Vegetarian Chili

In our second Monday cooking class we learned how to make some hearty and delicious vegetarian chili. And we're learning to have an open mind about trying new and possibly unusual foods. One student said "I thought I wouldn't like the chili, but I was wrong. I really liked the chili...it had a spicy kick that I liked." And another thought the platanos we tried when we learned about the Dominican Republic were "very very good." The students have all been great about being willing to try everything and sharing their opinions with respect.
