The residency will be focused around a show we will be <br /> seeing at The ArtsCenter on November 7 — Stories and Songs of Latin America. <br /> Throughout the show, Latin American culture will come alive through puppetry, <br /> music, stories, instruments, and more. <br /> A teaching artist will be coming into our classroom on October 14, 21, 23, <br /> November 4 and 13 to prepare students for the performance at The ArtsCenter, <br /> while simultaneously teaching curriculum through storytelling and dance. To <br /> support your child in this creative journey, please ask your child about his/her <br /> experiences during the course of the residency. <br /> This residency is possible, in part, by funding from the Grable Foundation, <br /> Nicholson Foundation and Orange County Arts Commission. <br /> Thank you in advance for your support! <br /> Sincerely, <br />
