EXPRESSIONS OF THE BRONX AS SANCTUARY

Cultural Immigrant Initiative

Facilitated by Sonia James-Wilson, Teaching Artist

This art workshop will explore the cultural traditions of people living in the Bronx and uplift the immigrant experience. Join us as we use the bird nest as a symbol of “sanctuary” to celebrate the ways our borough has provided newcomers with safety, shelter, compassion, and the chance to take flight

Activities are free of charge and will include:

Sharing immigration stories with others

Collage

Weaving

Painting
