The Opening Reception of "How My Family Celebrates the Holidays" was held on November 29.  The event was a celebration of the opening of the neighborhood student art exhibit “How My Family Celebrates the Holidays.”  The event flyer is here.

Art was displayed at the bank through the following Friday, December 7th. This was a multi-cultural event displaying the rich diversity of our neighborhood, as seen through the eyes of its youngest members. Hundreds of neighbors and friends came to the event and admired and celebrated our childrens' beautiful artwork.
