Exhibit of Amherst HS Students' Artwork to Fight Hunger
Event Date(s) Thursday, May 6, 2010 Event Time 5 - 8 PM Event Location Jones Library, Amherst, MA
Students in Momodou Sarr's class at Amherst Regional High School have spent this semester learning about the causes of hunger and solutions for how to reduce it. Through a project designed by Chelsea Mullins, a Masters Student in the Social Justice Education program at UMass, they are making paintings, drawings and collages depicting their own unique visions for ending hunger.
The students will donate their artwork to The Food Bank for use in a Hunger Advocacy and Education Campaign. The Food Bank will create postcards from the artwork to send to local, state and national representatives urging them to take action against hunger.
The artwork will be revealed in a special Art Walk opening at the Jones Library in Amherst on Thursday, May 6th from 5-8 pm. For more information, please contact Stacey Moyer at The Food Bank at staceym@foodbankwma.org or (413) 247-9738 x114
