As the sessions draw to a close on Sunday April 28, the young participants will be celebrated with a display of their photographs and artwork for the public. Meet these delighful and earnest young 'artists' - and also their parents and celebrated photojournalist Ron Haviv who mentored the young artists in this process.

About the workshop: Guided by the award-winning photo-journalist Ron Haviv and the caravan project team of art therapists, young teenagers from communities that were adversely effected by Hurricane Sandy learned how to frame their experiences, both physical and emotional. Photos of their external realities are being printed and layered with painted expressions of their internal worlds, thereby giving expression to their fears and dreams in order to find both hope in the future and solace in the present. <a href="http://ronhaviv.com">Ron Haviv</a>: Award-winning photojournalist Ron Haviv has produced images of conflict and humanitarian crises that have made headlines around the world. Haviv is a co-founder of photo agency VII, that is dedicated to documenting conflict, both violent and non-violent, to produce an unflinching record of the injustices created and experienced by people caught up in the events they describe. His images have been published by Audobon, Business Week, Details, Fortune, Newsweek, New York Times, New Yorker, Vanity Fair, Time, and many more.

I think it would be an injustice for Bagels to not get their own thread.

Murals for Children's Rooms/Nurseries

jcantelmi — Thu, 28 Mar 2013 15:46:12 +0000

I am a children's artist with a background in drawing, painting, and set design, and I love to create imagery that complements and encourages children's wonderful imaginations. I create murals for bedrooms, nurseries, and play rooms, customized especially for your home and child. I am relatively new to mural painting specifically, and as such I would offer a generous discount if we were to collaborate over the next couple of months. For more information and to view samples of my artwork, please visit <a href="http://jennifercantelmi.com/murals/" rel="nofollow">http://jennifercantelmi.com/murals/</a> Feel free to contact me directly at (646) 926-4762 or <a href="mailto:contact@jennifercantelmi.com">contact@jennifercantelmi.com</a>.

This article states it now opens officially on March 20th. FYI, it also does not mention puppets. <a href="http://nymag.com/shopping/openings/cool-pony-2013-3/" rel="nofollow">http://nymag.com/shopping/openings/cool-pony-2013-3/</a> BTW, I recently saw the landlords (ie the owners of the Candy Rush). From the sound of it, their attention will be placed solely on Tastebuds and getting to live a real life. Cool Pony sounds as if it is going head to head in the small events on Franklin Ave, Crown Heights. Let's see if the neighborhood will support both.

Two years later, would be curious to hear feedback about PS 316 from parents. How are things there these days? I understand there's a new principal.

This latest article doesn't mention puppets at all.
