Community~Word Project: Writing Our Future 2009

Originally aired on Sunday, April 12th, 2009

The Community~Word Project celebrated its Ninth Annual Benefit on March 30, 2009, with Writing Our Future. The event included performances, a reading by A. Van Jordan and a silent auction of works by artists established and emerging, among them Christo and Jean-Claude and Peter Lik. The organization is an arts-in-education non-profit that seeks to inspire children in under-served communities to read, interpret and respond to their world and become active citizens through collaborative arts residencies and teacher-training programs (1 hour 18 minutes, the children-only version is 16 minutes).
