ThinKING Youth Nonviolence Leaders from CREC Academy of Areospace and Engineering AAE the Greater Hartford Academy of the Arts GHAA recently visited The Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art and in it the Amistad Center for Art and Cultural.
During our March Saturday Meetups, funded in part by CREC’s Project Prevent and the Wallace Foundation’s Community Wealth Partners, youth enrolled in the course choose activities and service projects that they would like to do. On this day we explored the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art which houses the Amistad Center for Art and Culture. Echoing the clarion call of Dr. Martin Luther King, who in his Nobel Peace Prize in 1964 said “ I have the audacity to believe that peoples everywhere can have three meals a day for their bodies, education and culture for their minds and dignity, equality and freedom for their spirits.” The youth have requested that we go to other local museums. This is where your generous donations have a great impact.
