Friday, December 19th, we are having a photo exhibit opening at Midtown Global Market (Lake and Chicago) to celebrate the hard work of so many of you! Exhibited will be photos by several of the after-school kids, as well as the recent “glamour shots” that some of the teens took with Emily this week. Please come and bring your families, friends, neighbors, etc and enjoy some coffee, cider, cake, great art, and great company in the pleasant atmosphere of family night at the Global Market. We are getting very excited for this event!
The Pillsbury House annual Holiday party is coming up, next Thursday, December 18th! Please come volunteer to help decorate, serve cookies, do crafts with the kids, watch “How the Grinch Stole Christmas”, and various other tasks. Contact Greg or Corina for more info.
If anyone is interested in going to a production of You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown this Saturday night, at the Youth Performance Company, please contact me ASAP. We have received a few free tickets for the 7:30pm show, and I am willing to set up a van trip if anyone is interested in going, but I will have to know right away.
Emily, our photo teacher, will be putting on two “Glamour Shots” evening workshops. Come take portraits for your online profile pages this Wednesday, December 3, and next Wednesday, December 10, from 5-7pm. Bring your fancy clothes and get ready to have some photo fun!
We’re starting up a blog to let everyone know what’s happening in the youth programs here at Pillsbury House, because there are lots of exciting things coming up, and we don’t want anyone to miss out on any of the fun! Please let us know what you think about our blog, our programs, and our posts, by responding with comments. Greg and I (Corina) will be checking the blog regularly and responding to your comments and questions.
As the holidays are coming up we have lots of things happening…. stay tuned for more events posts.
