PROVIDING ACCESS & SUPPORT

Training, Cool Culture Fair and other outreach activities provide support for our extensive network of educators known as "Cultural Liaisons." Liaisons encourage families to visit cultural institutions, and offer parents techniques to make their visits as enriching as possible for children.
