On February 4th, artwork by the Drawing Club was on display at the Massachusetts State House as part of an After School Advocacy Day program. Speakers at the event stressed the importance of funding after school programs, and displaying artwork created at after school programs helped to stress this point. Works by Trea Crayton, Jose Mendes, Shelton Sterling, and Anslem Edegbe were featured. Photos from the event and their work are shown below. Click on the images to see larger versions.
Airing on BNN, the DotWell Teen Center's Film Crew produced a Martin Luther King Jr. Special Edition of "What Up Works." Check out the I AMM (Arts and Multi-Media) Program here.
