As mentioned in earlier issues of the ARTISTS NEWSLETTER, Bridgeport Public Schools will hold its Second Annual “Arts Count” Day on Wednesday, April 4, 2018 from 10am to 11am to celebrate the arts with Bridgeport students. Building off last year, Arts Count Day encourages artists from the community to share their experiences related to their craft with 5th-grade students in the Bridgeport Public School district. Artists will create, perform, and engage for one hour (10am to 11am) with their assigned 5th grade classroom to call attention to the role the arts play in their everyday lives. It will take 70 artists to cover each 5th grade classroom on that day, additional artists will be assigned to other grade levels within the district.
Artists are still needed, so if you are interested, or know of other artists (painters, musicians, dancer, architects, etc.) interested in speaking with students, please contact Timothy Grasty at tgrasty@bridgeportedu.net, call 203-275-1367, or register here.
