Gear and Flame Week Fall 2018


We have been collaborating with Steel City Academy for their Gear and Flame Week. 
(#GearAndFlame students have met grade level requirements, so they get to participate in a week of electives focused on vocational skills.) 

After a week of exploring, we brought the #KenParr Build-a-Bike to Steel City’s campus in Gary’s Glen Park Community. 

Our campers taught the kindergartens how to ride bikes and do a safety check. 

Come to the Marshall J Gardner Center for the Arts on 10/13/19 from 4-6pm to learn about the #ServiceProjects our inaugural group of young leaders have been doing across NWI.
 
Thank you to our Gold Level Sponsor, NWI Clean Air, our backbone organization Miller Beach Arts & Creative District, our community partner Family Folklore Foundation, Inc. and all our individual donors.
