The Journey
This new program will focus on celebrating the elders of our community. They are certainly a rich resource to us, and honoring them and the stories of their lives and how they evolved with the community, can only enhance our rich, diverse neighborhood surrounding Washington Park. Our focus will be on documenting their evolving stories as they pertain to the park. Music and art activities will be intertwined into this program.
