The FUNDRED DOLLAR BILL PROJECT, from origins to finale!!
A FUNDRED Overview, including activities of the past year.  We will cover recent collaborations with museums + galleries and integration into state curriculum.  Attendees will catch up on the science, city planning, and political beginnings of OPERATION PAYDIRT, the citywide recovery program to transform New Orleans into a leading lead-safe city.  A group FUNDRED strategy session is planned to close. Attendees will leave prepared to get their school, district, city, or even state involved in the largest art + science project to hit schools.  Don't let your students miss this fun opportunity to have a meaningful hand in a process and demonstrate that their creative voice CAN make a DIFFERENCE!  Presented by: Mary Rubin (National Coordinator) + Amanda Wiles (Assistant Coordinator)
