The Culture Keepers Saturday Field Trip was awesome! On Saturday November 15th, Culture Keepers students and coordinators from CVPA Suitland High School and Northwestern VPA, who were able to attend, went on a arts & cultural field day to museums and had a blast!
We visited the National Museum of African Art exhibit “Conversations: African and African American Artwork in Dialogue”. It was so exciting to see traditional and contemporary African and African American artworks together exploring themes in family & community, resistance & social justice, and spirituality.
We also visited the Hirshhorn Museum’s multimedia exhibit, “Days of Endless Time” and historical and cultural exhibitions at the National Museum of the American Indian.
Special thanks to the amazing and dedicated staff of PGCPS and contributors of the Culture Keepers program: Maria Saldana, Jamea Richmond-Edwards and Roxanne Francewoods.
Keep on keeping up with Culture Keepers!
