The Pittsfield Family YMCA is happily celebrating National Poetry Awareness Month. The YMCA has paired up with the Storefront Artist Project and the Berkshire Museum to formulate a special poetry class for children between the age of 6 and 12. This session consists of 3 classes: the first class will discuss poet Julio Granda's works and styles which will educate children on poetry. The second class will be producing the poems through one-on-one time with instructor Curtis Asch, Education Program Manager at the Berkshire Museum. The last class will be to put the finishing touches on the poems, create coinciding artwork to go along with them, and present them for the April 10th opening reception. The classes will take place on March 31st, April 5th and April 7th at the Storefront Artist Project located on 124 Fenn Street from 4 - 5 p.m. Registration is required so please click here to sign up your child: members or non-members.
