Great week with the Explorers Camp at College Park Community Center



Monday was just cool enough to be outdoors with our campers. We took a great walk from the center to a nearby park that had an awesome outdoor classroom. We brought along our imaginations and focused on looking deeply at the little aspects of nature that we encountered along the way.
When we arrived at the site we shared our experiences with nature and brainstormed strategies for including everyone's ideas into a collaborative mural.
The rest of the week had heat alerts that did not allow us to be outdoors! So we focused on visualizing our Monday experience. Our results are wonderful!

Our photo op is a big hit!

@GTK had an amazing day at Kinderfest 2014
We were busy all day, working with nature loving young people from all over @PGCounty! 
We created Nature's crowns and had a ton of folks taking pics with the photo opp! 
IN FACT THE PHOTO OPP LASTED ALL SEASON AND MANY FESTIVALS and I AM SAD TO SAY......IT'S DONE! 

What happened: A young man came up to it from behind and jumped on it and....well, let's just say the artwork needs the Winter in Florida to get ready for 2015!! lol



We're at Kinderfest

Get to Know brings creative fun to Vansville Extreme Teens

A good time was had by all as we began our GTK Nature Mask project at Vansville Community Center last Friday evening. 
Thank you Arlene Celestine for creating the vision! 
We had 9 teens participate and each one cast the face of a friend in the group. Next week we will envision ourselves as part of Nature! And design self portrait masks.
Because of course we ARE part if of an interdependent web of life right?!
Can't wait!
