WHERE TO FIND ME THIS MONTH (JUNE 2009)
This month artist
Susan Seaberry and I complete our
classroom workshops for
Project Arts RESPECT in
El Rio School District,
Oxnard, California. A three-hour,
standards-based literary and visual arts program addressing themes of identity,
empathy, kindness and respect, the project will culminate in a published book of
student art and writing. Our purpose is to encourage
students to honor what makes each of them unique; explore the ways they are
alike; and express the power of kindness in their lives, writing and art.
