Colgate-Palmolive awards $5000 grant to Silvermine Art Partners for unique studio-art program and cultural exchange In partnership with Creative Connections Inc., Silvermine Arts Center is expanding the cultural and creative experiences of students in the after-school studio-art program at Nathan Hale Middle School, Norwalk. The students create and exchange art with peers in other countries—this year, Uganda and Guatemala—using art to communicate about their lives and learn how others live across the globe, promoting understanding and appreciation of customs and traditions. Each semester culminates in a video conference with their new art friends.
