ArtLAB - Education Notes
The Education Notes blog helps to mediate between the plan designed for each installment of Youth Voices and the reality of the classroom. By reflecting on the weekly workshops from the educator's perspective, we are able to write and share about the process of the project, and how it relates to larger social and educational issues.
We invite you to follow Departures Youth Voices as we work closely with students and community members to Re-envision the L.A. River.
