Storytelling with Art With a Heart

Khabir Shareef and I have joined forces with Art With a Heart to create a storytelling program. Last week we performed The Crane Wife from the book, Think Rather of Zebra for four groups of junior high students at The Christel House Academy in Indianapolis. During each twenty minute performance Khabir told the story through words, while I told the story through paint. At the end of each session we talked to the students about the moral of the story and the process of presenting the story. This program is designed to encourage students to work together and to inspire them to tap into their own creative potential through storytelling and art. We had a wonderful time during the performance and are looking forward to our next gig at Andrew J. Brown Academy next week.
