We had a really terrific combination “Conversation with…” and workshop with curator, journalist and author Teri Henderson and TCS Trustee Fleesie Hubbard. Teri is the author of  Black Collagists: The Book and is the Arts and Culture Editor of the Baltimore Beat. She talked about her education and career trajectory but shared most of her time talking about collage art created by Black artists. After the presentation, Teri and Fleesie ran a workshop with the students where each student created a collage of their own.
We learned a lot about the art of collage and its rich history in the Black community that included works by Louie Armstrong, Romare Bearden and Sadie Barnette. It was really enjoyable to create works ourselves. Thank you Teri & Fleesie!

We had the honor of “Conversations with…” two amazing and strong women today.
In the morning, Cheryl Waters-Hassan, a long time educator in the Baltimore area came in to share with the students about her life and learn more about the school and the students.
Then in the afternoon, Margaret Murphy returned to the school to share her Emmy award winning documentary on Anne Morrow Lindbergh. After watching it, she reflected on her experiences with Ms. Lindbergh and with making the documentary.
We are fortunate to have the example and wisdom of these elders and so many more that generously share their time with us.

Music was in the air as hip hop artist Imani Yasin was in the school today for a “Conversation with…”  Imani shared her music with the students and there was a lively discussion about the songs, productions and the imagery created when listening to them. In addition to her musical passions and career, Imani has been engaged in community work that has taken her to South Africa though most of it has been in her hometown of Baltimore.  She inspired the students as Imani shared about her education and career journey. Imani has been a friend of the school for many years and it’s always a treat to have her back at the school.  https://www.imaniyasin.com/

Hector Rivas, a first year student at The Community School received this message from Baltimore Center Stage today:

Your play, The Mirror into the Past, has been selected for the 2022/2023 Young Playwrights Festival. Your piece truly envelopes this year’s “The Looking Glass” theme! It was chosen from a group of 124 submissions from all over the state of Maryland, and we are thrilled to have the opportunity to bring your work to life at our Young Playwrights Festival on Saturday May 20, 2023.
