This is our sixth year offering the Art Exploration Program at Hope Academy in S. Minneapolis! During the first two weeks we’ve had 10 Hope HS interns and 1 Hope graduate assistant working with our Artist Mentors in the IA Studios. During weeks 3-4 of the program, the interns will be the classroom assistants for middle school students at Hope Academy.
