This class is run in collaboration with Lexington High School’s Munroe Art Mentors Club. President & LHS sophomore Hannah Sul is excited to develop more opportunities for local students to connect, after joining MCA as a volunteer and summer camp counselor. The club encourages local teens to get involved in the arts, participate in the community, and develop leadership experiences as positive role models for younger student bases. |
