Teach Literacy through the Arts in DC, MD, and VA

Thank you so much for choosing to be a continued part of this project. We could not accomplish what we do without you.

Often times we send you a note of one of our experiences or an upcoming event in our report. This time we would like to share with you a note from one of our Board Members on why she decided to become a partner with Story Tapestries.

"Becoming involved with Story Tapestries was not a difficult decision for me given all that the company has done for my school. I first met Arianna Ross about six years ago when she was selected by my school as a performing artist in an assembly. I was intrigued by her arts integration style so when she approached me about scheduling a full blown residency with her for the next school year, I was eager to make it happen. Unfortunately, my school was just unable to afford the residency and we weren't able to make it happen for a few years. It was those years that Story Tapestries was being born out of hard work, need, and sweat. The seemingly insurmountable financial gap was suddenly non existent and Jessup Elementary School's partnership with Arianna Ross and Story Tapestries began. That partnership has been going strong for over four years. Experiencing the power of this company's programming first hand, made it a no brainer to become involved on the board level when I was approached. I look forward to bringing awesome arts integration programming to other schools that may have fallen between the cracks just like Jessup."

We are continually connecting with and developing relationships like this one. These connections are the building blocks of our organization. They create our framework and expand our reach within the communities we serve. We would love to further deepen and broaden the reach of our partnership with you. If you have a need or interest please contact us.
