Event Details

May through October 2024, Cassandra Gunkel will be working with children to create a Remember the Children Memorial. Through numerous workshops, held in the Upper Burying Ground, the project will engage children around gun violence. Using various art processes, such as screen printing and book making, children will create signs, posters, and small books, expressing themselves through artmaking, sharing, and exhibiting. The project entails connecting with schools and churches in the area to access the children and their families for whom this project is designed and businesses willing to contribute to the project. We are hoping you will be available to participate in this remarkable venture.
