Proud to announce my first endorsement for Commissioner of 1E07. Lou Bernard, GM of Roy Boys, is a friend, community builder & someone I look up to. He’s led the Roy Boys brand & staff through unpredictable times. He puts his neighborhood 1st like no other. He’s with Farnan. ✅

Thank you to all who have already supported our campaign — not mine, it’s ours! I’m facing an opponent this year and truly believe my perspective will best serve residents of 1E07. If you’d like to chat or plan a clean-up together, reach out!! 🤝 – at Washington, DC

Incredibly inspiring morning exploring art with these brilliant students. Teaching on zoom has offered so many new ways of connecting with learners, but the in person still is pretty good too.
Some of our @NAFCareerAcads scholars are at @ngadc discussing Jaune Quick-to-See Smith’s “I See Red: Target” (bit.ly/3ICCqDi) using the “See, Think, Me, We” @ProjectZeroHGSE thinking routine. The discussion was facilitated by @denashereen. #Harambee4Roosevelt

Join us Tuesday, January 25th for a virtual workshop with @denashereen and @georgina_in_dc! bit.ly/DCPZECJanuary
Learning through play. This morning @georgina_in_dc led families with @ngadc in discovering shadow drawings using everyday household objects. What story do you see emerging from the shadows created using a lemon press, whisk, and clementine?
Join @denashereen in her workshop "Art as Empathy: How an Ordinary D.C. Hero Invites Us to Discover Beauty Wherever We Are" Participants will not only engage with Thomas' work, but will practice her technique and create works inspired by her!

Let's explore the intersection between art and humor.
Replying to @ngadc
If you like art as much as you like a good joke, this family program is for you: Starting this Sunday (Nov. 14), join comedian Haywood Turnipseed to channel your inner stand-up writing punchlines inspired by works of art by some of the greats ➡️ nga.gov/calendar.html
Congrats!!!

Happy #AlmaThomasDay ❤️ @MayorBowser just announced that September 22 is officially “Alma Thomas Day.” What makes the day even more special is that today would have been the late artist’s birthday.
 But who is Alma Thomas?
