Youth Group on Sunday, June 1!
2:00-4:00 pm
Peekskill Waterfront
Join Us This Sunday June 1st 2pm-4pm at the Peekskill Waterfront as we volunteer in the project “Draw Together Strangers.”
We live in a fractured world, endlessly divided by class, race, gender, sexuality, politics, religion and on and on… One of the saddest consequences of this? Frustrated, fearful, sometimes just lost in our own worlds, we look away. We don’t see each other anymore.
Luckily there exists a sophisticated tool to help us pay attention and connect with people we might otherwise avoid or ignore. It’s called a pen! A simple drawing exercise can rewire our brains into SEEING one another again. All it takes is 60 seconds, some paper and pens, and two strangers. Learn more about this global portrait project.
We will work as a team and try to bring strangers together. This could count towards community service if anyone needs a few hours.
Parents, drop off youth around 2pm AND we need a few adults to stay and help, as well, let Kaycee know if you can stay. Pick up around 4pm,
Hope to see you there !!
