In the fall of 2020, the Racial Harmony program began at Andrew’s Studio. This eight week project brought together sixteen young adults/youth ranging in age from 12-24. Over this time, they worked with the Domus and Arch Street studio leaders singly and in pairs to produce creative pieces expressing their feelings and hopes about racial issues.
