A Single Drop of Water: Get your cameras ready!

On May 1, 2010 we'll be launching our first A Single Drop of Water photography competition. Winners will share in over $5,000 in prize money and have their work exhibited in NYC! This competition will form part of an arts based environmental awareness and education program designed to raise awareness about water, the importance of this precious resource, water pollution, and water scarcity in some communities. Thank you to everyone who has already expressed interest in entering, we're really looking forward to seeing your beautiful images.

Think Theater: Taking on Bullying

Based on participant feedback at last year's successful event, this year we're developing a brand new play and interactive workshop on bullying for 7-10 year olds. The script is almost complete, and next month we'll start filming the multimedia footage that will be part of the show. Thank you to everyone who donated to this valuable project in 2009, and we hope to have your continuing support in 2010.
