We had a most amazing, meaningful and deep conversation yesterday as recent alumni came back to share their experiences with the current students. Donald Lacy, Olivia Yates, Jayla Nickens-Gill, Ronan Guilfoyle and Destiny Grimes shared their stories from before attending TCS through their current lives. The students were captivated and the energy between everyone in the room was one of the most engaging of any Conversation we have ever had. There was a lot of honest sharing from both current students and graduates about their lives, previous educational experiences and time in the school. This is the first in a series of alumni conversations that will happen this year. Thus group of more recent alumni will come back in a few months. The next "Conversation with Alumni" will be with graduates from a little further back who are further along in their careers and lives. We are so proud of our graduates and thankful for their continued relationship with the school....

Sharing 50 years of her art, artist Mary Magenta invited the students to view her exhibit at the Roland Park Community Center gallery. Mary greeted us and shared her story of creating her first calendar art 50 years a go with markers and string to her widely distributed printed copies today. Mary had multiple paintings of various sizes showcasing her many decades of creativity most all of which had nature themes. The students had many questions about how she developed her stylle without any formal training. Her paintings displayed her love for the many places she's lived and traveled including Kentucky and Seattle. Mary is a long time friend of our organization and painted the sign that hung outside our first community center on Lorraine Avenue back in 1977! Our special thanks to Mary Magenta for continuing to share her craft and stories with us....

Bringing their considerable and varied artistic talents into the classroom, Ms. Denise Gantt and Ms. Ebony Evans are back again. This year's weekly seminar will focus on reading and understanding plays, but will include monthly somatic workshops at The Lyric. The students will also write and perform a work based on their own life experiences. As a kickoff to this year's class, the students visited The Lyric, a historic former opera house built in the 19th century. We started with a delicious lunch and then toured the venue and learned about its history and the many performers who were on the same stage the students visited including such varied performers as Chris Rock, Diana Ross, the Grateful Dead and Alvin Ailey. The last part of the day had the students developing and acting out short scenes. It was a fun-filled trip and a great start to another terrific year thanks to Mama Denise, Sister Ebony and The Lyric. https://www.lyricbaltimore.com/education/about-1...

Everyone was excited to have the Women of Done Construction back at the school for another year of monthly seminars. Beth, Sarah Senior, Kristin, Sarah Junior and Catesby first gave each of the new students a fully equipped tool bag to match the ones they gave all of the continuing students. After going over each of the tools in the bag, there was a class on the measuring tape and how to read it. The students will build two projects this year. The first is to build and finish a bookcase that they can take home. This will come in handy because the students get a copy of each book we read in the school. The second project will be to build and wire aa lamp. Beth and crew talked about how they each entered into home renovation work and the unique culture of their company. We are fortunate to have Done Construction as part of our school community....
