We are delighted to be working with three school districts this month. In partnership with the Angels Gate Cultural Center we are again at NASA, this time with 3 1st grades that are learning parts from "The Patchwork Girl of Oz" we will be performing in March. Through a matching grant from LA County Supervisor Don Knabe's Arts Education Partnership we just completed our third educational residency at Fairgrove Academy (La Puente Hacienda Heights) with 5 of their middle school classes. We worked with them 4 weeks and they performed 5 'world' dances which this year came from Africa, Mexico, Ireland, Italy, and the USA. Our company performed Invasion and Call From the Afterlife on their program on February 11. We have just begun a residency at Braddock El in Culver City. Two of their 2nd grades are working with Reichlin and our teaching artists on material they will perform with us next month- this through the new LAUSD Arts Partnership Program.
And we have an opening with a grant from DCA LA for a school with some matching funds in one of the following LA City Council Districts: 2,3,6,7, 20, or 12. This is in the west Valley or moving into the central area.
