Conwell grad Councilmember Isaiah Thomas opposes middle school's closure
A key member of the Philadelphia City Council has already expressed opposition to parts of the district’s plan to close, relocate, and co-locate several schools.
Students in grades six through 12 are invited to this free workshop series, where they will develop a mural design at Kensington Voice with community artist John C. Zerbe (zerbeartz.com).
From October through December, we'll create various visual art projects, like banners, logos, photos, postcards, stickers, and t-shirt designs that help design the mural, all while providing a platform for kids & teens to express themselves and share with their peers and community.
We'll provide after-school snacks and drinks, plus all the art supplies. The recommended age is 6th through 12th grade, but we won't turn anybody away.
Students can drop in for one workshop, a few, or all! But youth participants who attend at least half (5) of the workshops will receive a $75 gift card at the final event in December.
Register for our Youth Voices program and choose “Mural Art Mondayz” to get the door code: tinyurl.com/y88wu4w8.
