How come’s & What if’s? On Saturday, May 22 from 10:00 AM – 1:30 PM, we’ll all be asking these questions. Our FAST (Fun Activities & Skills Training) Program returns for another fun and engaging in-person activity! Join us for a mid-day full of creativity! Renowned Tactile Artist, Ann Cunningham, and Creative Activist, Rishika Kartik will lead our journey of a reading of “Mort the Mouse Goes on an Adventure.” Participants can enjoy the story and tactile pictures and join us for a critical analysis of the content and pictures. This will serve as a jumping off point to tell your own stories. Following this, we will break up into two different groups; one will be working on a writing activity, while the other group works on an illustration activity, students will have the chance to participate in both. All students who attend will receive a copy of the book. We will also have a maze set up in the gym for all to try! The goal of this FAST program is to unleash our creative side and encourage one another to get involved in hands-on and brains-on ways to express ourselves.
After our writing and illustration activities (at 12 PM), we will be serving pizza for all to enjoy. Please make sure to tell us ahead of time if you have any dietary restrictions.
Please RSVP by 10:00 PM on Thursday, May 20, 2021.
