OUR HANDS SPEAK
As long as you are kind and there is love in your heart
A thousand hands will naturally come to your aid
As long as you are kind and there is love in your heart
You will reach out with a thousand hands to help others. **

SUMMARY OF VIDEO
The 2011/2012 Visual Arts K-12
curriculum focused on the Art of the Pacific. Students learned about the art
and culture of Russia, Asia and Oceania. During one particular Dance lesson,
our students learned about Deaf dancers in China and were inspired by "Thousand
Hand - Guan Yin." Their "Thousand Hand" dance choreography was
performed by Deaf dancers of China Disabled People's Performing Art Troupe. TLC
students then created their interpretation and designed their own movement
choreography. The video was edited by the art teacher, Mary Silvestri Simmons. Slideshow from the TLC's Annual Art Show 2013 "Art of the Pacific" (May 2013) can be viewed on TLC's website here.
