Sue Rakowski: "Hi Everyone! As many of you know I'm a board member for an arts education nonprofit, Foundation for New American Art, that is bringing free after school art/music/dance/theater programs to students attending public schools where the budgets for arts curriculum have been cut or drastically reduced.
I'm delighted to share that we are expanding to Poughkeepsie with our MAIN ST. MAESTROS program. Founder & Ex. Dir. Phoebe Legere has secured a beautiful space in partnership with Hudson River Housing.
Programs begin in March. If you know of anyone who wants a part-time Teachers Assistant job working 8 hours a week, please let me know. Email me: info@foundationfornewamericanart.org It's rewarding to see kids blossom when exposed to this program. (And please consider a small donation; believe me, Phoebe and I know how to max out every single dollar to provide art supplies, musical instruments & more. foundationfornewamericanart.org)
Here are some of the posters Phoebe created for the Main St. Maestro program:
