HBCU Day with Caminos at the George Washington Carver Museum 🎓✨
We were grateful to be part of this incredible community event this past weekend celebrating Historically Black Colleges and Universities. We were excited to lead our acrylic marker painting activity table and our beaded jewelry creations table (jewelry table not shown), where art and creativity brought people of all ages together. 🎨 We also enjoyed hearing keynote speaker SaulPaul ( ), TT on the Mic’s ( ) HBCU roll call, the Divine 9 fashion show, and the step and stroll show. A day we connected through community, excellence, and education. 🎓📚✨
It was especially meaningful to talk with attendees of all ages about what Caminos is and the work we do in our community. 🫶
Thank you to the Carver Museum for hosting an amazing HBCU Day event!
