ART SEE: A New Arts Forum Fundraiser
May 24, 2012
On Friday, December 16, kindergarten through 4th graders at Fairfield Academy explored the theme of Mexican heroes and role models through a unique dance performance. Led by Urban Gateways teaching artist and professional dancer Amaniyea Payne, students performed for parents, teachers and fellow students, and displayed visual art reflecting the 'heroes' theme. This culminating event resulted from three Urban Gateways teaching artist residencies last semester at Fairfield, all made possible by corporate sponsor Jenner & Block. Check out photos from this exciting event!
