YOUTH PROJECT FOR WORLD AIDS DAY; 1 DEC 2007
For those interested in a powerful art/witness experience, please consider mobilizing your church's youth group to participate in this project, in conjunction with the annual "Medicine Wheel Project" held annually for the last seventeen years at the Cyclorama in Boston's South End. This year, 20,000 youth and young people will carry water to the Boston Center for the Arts, as a symbol of the annual rate of new infections in this country alone. The project, directed by Michael Dowling, is a powerful presentation of hope and lament around this health crisis. For further information, contact him at: michael.mw@verizon.net.
