This cafe session featured Houston artist, and Lee HS Alumni, Betirri Bengston who spoke about his experience at the school, and showcase some of his art pieces.

Furthermore, Principal Jonathan Trinh and the administration and teachers of Lee High School discussed the issues they face in Lee High School as well as our city at large. The event also showcased the art work of some of the students, together with that of Betirri, and allowed the parents, public, school staff, and artists to engage with each other.

Thanks to a new partnership with HISD, we are honored to work with Lee High School this year to provide workshops, projects, and mentorship to students. Please join us for this event and we hope to see you on Feb 22nd!
