Celebrating students and their teaching artists

Friday, June 3 2022 at 6:00 p.m.

John Chavis Memorial Park
505 Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard
Raleigh, NC  27601

This event will showcase students from Cary Elementary, Lacy Elementary, Heritage Leadership Academy, Magellan Charter School, Washington Elementary, and Weatherstone Elementary schools.

Participating teaching artists are Michael Beadle, Diane Silcox-Jarrett, Kelly Starling Lyons, and Tony Peacock. After a brief welcome, the program will transition to our four writers. Each will introduce their chosen students and give some detail regarding their work together. Each student will then read a select piece of writing.

Since 2015, this event has helped United Arts highlight the importance of the creative writing process and provided a valuable glimpse into the power of a weeklong residency.

We thank Raleigh Arts and Wake County Public Schools for their participation, and we welcome your attendance.
