The Board of Directors and Staff of PAEP join with all those who, throughout these past days, have mourned the death of George Floyd at the hands of members of the Minneapolis Police Force and who have marched and chanted in protest at the unequal treatment of racial minorities throughout our country’s history. We join with all those who demand that, this time, there be a meaningful and lasting change and we pledge to do our part to continue to use the medium of Arts Education to teach respect and tolerance to all the young persons who come under our tutelage.
