Our series premieres have been completed.  The series has been created with the support of the Community Foundation for Greater Buffalo.

This interactive program has been designed to increase community understanding regarding racial and ethnic disparities. Underground Railroad Project provides the opportunity for children and families to learn about our region’s past and to work with African American artists. The residency is designed for grades 5, 7, 8, 11, or 12. Our goal is to offer the residency in 20 schools in 2010-2011.
