The Language Arts Conference, Spring 2018


On April 11, we hosted 18 high school students for our annual "Language Arts" conference. This year, students from Edwardsville High School and the SIUE/East St. Louis Charter High School participated. The conference included arts activities focusing on audio production, creative writing, and comic books. We also coordinated a book fair.

The conference provided us with a good opportunity to involve black boys in arts and humanities activities. The sessions were led by a small group of collegiate black men.
