Children in a village of Uganda, Africa, have a brand new school, and the children who watch Rhode Island PBS were invited to draw colorful pictures to decorate the walls in this new school. This invitation ended on November 30.

This invitation is part of a Rhode Island PBS project with students at Bryant University, and "Building Understanding of Life in Africa" (BULA).

 

 

 

UPDATE!

Six-year-old John F. of Cumberland was the first child to send in artwork! Thank you and great job, John! Here is John's drawing.
