My hope was to bring that much needed comfort to the families in the MESH program through delicious soup. Continue reading →

As small fingers wrap around the paintbrush, Morah Sally Goodgold gently instructs her students on how to dab the brush into the liquid watercolors, before applying the bristles to the coffee filter. “We’re making sunflowers, just like Van Gogh,” she proudly tells her students. Each coffee filter, meticulously cut into the shape of a flower, sits in front of her 3 and 4-year old students. They are eager to rotate colors, mixing yellow and brown, adding gold glitter, and returning to add some vibrant orange. The sunflowers soak in the paint, just as Morah Sally’s students soak up the experience.
