As a student, Denise Green, Human Ecology '07, developed and taught a unique and powerful curriculum designed to empower disadvantaged youth through artistic expression.
Working with the Ithaca Urban 4-H Outreach Program of the Cornell Cooperative Extension of Tompkins County, her program teaches basic sewing skills with an emphasis on independent thought and creative freedom.
This film is part of an outreach effort to make project ideas and curriculum available to other educators and volunteers involved in 4-H youth development programs.
