TATIP Work

Erin is currently assisting CWP Teaching Artists Bianca Garcia & Scott Lilly at PS279 in the Bronx. The class is in the process of writing and recording a class song and the students have been actively involved in learning how to personify objects as well as how to use actions to describe daily life in their city.
