BlocksMASK MAKING WORKSHOPS Blocks

For two consecutive days (January 25th and 26th 2007), two groups of enthusiastic seventh grade students from the City College Academy of the Arts visited City College to enjoy mask making workshops. The children were welcomed by the staff of the CUNY-Dominican Studies Institute, the City College School of Education, and Cohen Library.

The students, most of whom are from Dominican families, enjoyed a day of Dominican heritage and culture. They had the opportunity to tour the exhibit: "The Artistry of Dominican Carnival" and paint carnival masks under the guidance of teaching artists from the Juan Pablo Duarte Foundation. These masks are exhibited in the City College Academy of the Arts rotunda.
