Art in Action
Ever wonder what it would be like if Little Red Riding Hood had AD/HD? The students of Afro Centric in Minneapolis are finding out. As part of MACMH’s Continuum of Mental Health program, teaching artist Matt Jenson is working with the students to write and stage a very unique adaptation of this well-known fairy tale titled, “The Better to Distract You With, My Dear.” The cast will then take their show on the road to other elemetary schools that are participating in the Continuum Program.
