LEARN ·2015 Grants ChallengeLitRemix
The world looks toward Los Angeles as the mecca of creativity and imagination, making it the perfect anchor city to pilot LitRemix. We are proposing a partnership to engage both HS and college students in a program that generates art inspired by specific classic books taught in school. Common-core compliant, LitRemix is based on 10 years of work through Artists for Literacy. It directly addresses the challenge teachers have to make the experience of reading books relevant to their students.
