Center for Creativity & Community to host special youth event on Martin Luther King Day
FREE event - Pre-registration requested

 

[January 14, 2020] 

The Center for Creativity & Community will be hosting a youth gathering on January 20th from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. for fourth to eighth-graders to celebrate the life and legacy of Martin Luther King, Jr.

Through conversation and creative activities we will look at the arts that influenced the civil rights movement and invite youth to consider a cause they care about, creating their own art—through poetry, story, song, or symbol—to represent their cause.

The activity will be held at the First Presbyterian Church, 301 Pekin Street in Lincoln.  Doors will open at 1:45 p.m.

Parents are asked to register their children by Jan 18th, by phone [phone] or email at [e-mail].  As with other youth events at The Center, this is free offering.

The Center is sponsored by First Presbyterian Church of Lincoln. It offers an after school program for 5th to 8th graders with the purpose to provide a place for youth to be themselves, explore their creativity, and strengthen their connection within and with others. The program is Tuesdays thru Thursdays, 3:00--5:30 PM. Youth are welcome to join at any time.
