Since 2001, Jack Straw Cultural Center and Kimball Elementary have worked together to create inclusive oral history projects and help improve the students’ reading, writing, and performance skills. Our hands-on programs, with a team of artists sensitive to student needs, provide students with the support to make participating, learning, and sharing possible in a safe and accessible environment.
