Looking for something fun that gets the kids outside and creating this weekend? 👀
Studio 550 Arts Center Monster Hunt is taking over downtown Manchester this Saturday! Hunt for handmade clay monsters, explore Elm Street and check out monster-themed art activities.

We love that it gets kids moving, discovering their community and using their imaginations to create their own stories. That’s media literacy in action! 👹🎨

If you could put your hometown on camera, what would you want people to see?
Students at Franklin High School got to decide for themselves. They interviewed people in their community and created A City Reimagined, a 25-minute documentary told from their perspective.
