Weekly Programming with Children This month, the group spent Martin Luther King Jr. Day trying to match their skin color with paint only to learn that skin color doesn’t matter! Youth also thought about what they would do to change the world. Hickory Street mentees finished off the day with painting plastic stained glass fixtures, snow forts and sledding outside, and watching Ponyo, the movie!
