Yesterday was so wildly wonderful! We had a total of five youth participating in Art Inclusive.

One person was drawing quite well, at a table with me and his mom. When the other four participants came in they were in two groups; each person only knew the other person they walked in with, and that was it.

The kids sat down, rested their brains for a minute or two, and then they got creative. They cut up magazines, scrapbook paper, and tore up tissue paper as well. They used Mod Podge to decoupage composition notebooks that they could take home to use as they see fit. It was really cool to see their amazing personalities come out and shine, while they worked with their hands.

By the end of the group meeting, you would have thought the four were old friends. It was just the best moment. THAT is why we have this group; so four individuals can walk in, sit down, and build there community. I literally had tears in my eyes when I left.

I need to add a few more things before calling it quits for the evening. Whitney, you are amazing, THANK YOU so much for all of your help last night. Keith, you are adding culture to The Square, and we need more and more of it! We thank you, Emma, and Jason!
