2 Weeks Until Picnic for the Arts!

“Children learn how to make eye contact, how to give and receive words, how to listen and take turns, how to empathize, how to take risks, how to react in the moment and how to persevere. Yes, this really is what they learn through games, role play and movement.” – Huron Grade 1/2 Teacher

Huron’s Picnic for the Arts is only 2 weeks away!
FRIDAY, JUNE 3RD from 5-8PM
