November 4:
After our inaugural summer residency, we met to share what we learned and discuss plans for our future. We also had a board meeting to elect new members.
Young creatives from Contingent I and their families joined board members and mentors for screenings of the scrapbooks they made while in residency, and a slideshow of their summer adventures.
The young people learned new things about each other and their families, and were brought closer together after sharing the life stories they had written for their scrapbooks.
After the screenings, musicians and mentors from Bushwick and Queens came to play music and celebrate our young creatives with A PARTY!!!
