 Arts xChange uses our different arts education workshops to link youth around the world. We're excited that currently Arts xChange is taking place in two countries. Rwandan youth in Kigali connect each week with students at Youth Build Charter School in Compton through our Introduction to Art workshops. Also, students at Grover Cleveland High School in Reseda link with youth in Afghanistan through Mythic Challenges. Grover Cleveland High School Media Arts teacher Evelyn Seubert remarked, "Rather than doing a "talking heads" documentary about clean water, the students designed a 'duel' at the water fountain between two increasingly more combative and greedily thirsty boys. They are finding the story structure and symbols that will move their audience to take action.  Stay tuned for more updates on our Arts xChange programs. |
