Dear Key Communicators,
AFES registration went very well with over 11,000 FREE registrations to some great arts and humanities education programming in the DC region! Thank you for your patience with the new system. I've included a list of the trips that are still available and two fabulous NEW Professional Development Opportunities with a theater focus, presented by Kids Euro Festival. You can click the links directly to register. I will be in touch soon about the in-school residencies!
There are still more professional Development spots open on the AFES registration portion of our website. Please view them and get the word out to your colleagues! Go to www.dccollaborative.org and click on AFES and PD registrations)
