[Xmca-l] Off-Site AERA Session

[Carrie Lobman]

Lois Holzman and I have often shared the work of our colleagues at the All Stars Project, the national youth development program co-founded by Lenora Fulani and the late Fred Newman. The All Stars is being featured this year in a presidential off-site session on Saturday April 14th that I am co-hosting with Dr. Fulani. I hope you will join us and pass the word.


Extending and Deepening the Concept of Public Education

Saturday April 14 12:30PM-2:30PM



Join us for a presidential off-site visit to the national headquarters of All Stars Project, Inc. (ASP), a national, privately funded non-profit organization that sponsors outside of school youth development programs in six U.S. cities and serves 53,000 young people and their families, primarily in poor communities of color. For over three decades the All Stars has served as a laboratory for developing cultural approaches to youth and community development in an effort to impact on the damaging effects of entrenched and generational poverty. The ASP builds “stages”—both in and out of the theatre that support participants to play and perform and through those activities, develop and learn. The visit will include a tour and a taste of the performance and workshop spaces contained in the 31,000 square-foot facility and a group conversation led by Carrie Lobman, Ed.D and All Stars co-founder and social activist Lenora Fulani, PhD with staff and youth and adult participants.



LOGISTICS: Meet in the lobby of the New York Hilton Midtown at 1335 Sixth Avenue at 11:45am or come directly to the All Stars Project at 543 W 42nd Street at 12:30pm
