Prairie also closed its 2009 with a well-received educational program calld New Voices. This project involved a collaboration between Prairie, the School for Creative and Performing Arts and the Drop Inn Center. SCPA students learned basic digital photography and then explored the community surrounding the location for their new school building, including building and documenting their relationships with members of the men's recovery program at the Drop Inn Center. Click on the New Voices logo above to see more work from this project. Prairie will be continuing its new voices program in the Spring with Princeton High School students.
