 Corporate Bench Program

Catholic and Public Schools Needs Art and Music Programming

Recently Creative Class rooms Directors visited us. They have a special art curriculum made for Catholic school students to learn art skills and visit museums group from the NY Archdiocese. Artists and teachers take the children to the museum asked us if they could have free admission passes for 2000 intercity school kids. They did not have the money for admissions and they have asked us to find corporate sponsorships. The children want a $10.00 goody bag of treats! The CC group asks us to collaborate on a publication for Kids. Kids will write the letters, make drawings and tell their stories about their special inspirations, feeling on art, music and spiritual experience about the museum.

Vatican Radio, Hear the voice of the Harlem Children!

"Children Broadcast live from The National Museum of Catholic Art and History to The Vatican"

March 4th, 2008 at 8:00 am in the morning East Harlem Spanish children came to the museum to be interviewed by Vatican Radio about a 13 ft painting about Pope Benedict XVI painted by Fred Villanueva. The Children cried “ Viva La Poppa! Please come to East Harlem and visit the Catholic Museum.” The children wait to see if His Holiness’ will scheduled a visit our museum in New York City in April.
