Lincoln Community Learning Centers, together with Family Service Lincoln, Northeast Family Center, YMCA of Lincoln, and Civic Nebraska, are hosting the first-ever Walk Together project from 5:30 to 7 pm on Friday, March 4, in the University Place Neighborhood.
Students in several of the local schools (K-12) have been learning about the rich history behind art, slam poetry/spoken word, and textile projects focusing on Black and women’s history. The students have merged these lessons with what they see in the present day and created a celebration through their creations and crafts in an “all-city showcase.”
There will be a variety of exhibits and performances at businesses in the neighborhood for the community to enjoy. This event is free and open to the public. #CLCWALKINGTOGETHER2022
