- Dozens of students from around our region read beautifully, with grace and passion--from 1st grade to 12th grade. They represented the 12,000 Dreamers from across the project, and we were all very proud of them. We had a surprise delivery of Dream Flags from the Khumjung School in Nepal!
- They were trekked down from the school, flown from Kathmandu to a friend at Yale University, and delivered to Phurba Sherpa in Washington, DC who presented them to us on Saturday!! Phurba was accompanied by another special guest, Anne Keiser of the Greater Himalayas Foundation.
- We got to hang French Dream Flag from Madagascar from the 80-foot hight model fo the Eifel Tower right in the middle of the Kimmel Center!
- The musicians were up on stage with the readers and we had wonderful improv behind the poetry reading with the brand new sound and stage at the Kimmel Center.
Here are a few pictures from the event.
