We couldn't resist sharing just one more photo from the LPTM boys' viewing of the solar eclipse!

Staff helped all the boys into their safety glasses so they could view the eclipse without harming their eyes.

Did you know that along with the arts, we also work with our young Apprentices towards their academic success? Scholar Hour is a big part of the Life Pieces day!

This young Apprentice used Scholar Hour this past week to work on his school project about the great Jackie Robinson!

High-five! It's the middle of the week, and we have so much going on! Life Pieces is already getting ready for our summer program, and spots are filling up FAST.

If you'd like to apply for your son(s), stop by our office on the fourth floor of Drew E.S. for an application!

LPTM Apprentices are hard at work this week painting what will become backgrounds and scraps to be sewn together into our signature acrylic-painted collage paintings!

The process can be messy, but these young artists are BORN READY to do what it takes to make art!

For Women's History Month, we're shouting out our amazing Sister Brittany Mazique, who helps us at LPTM with all things communications and marketing!
