5days4arts is a fundraising campaign for the PS29 PTA. We hope to raise money to plug budget cuts and keep our music, art and drama programs strong. Come back each day this week to see a new video that highlights our wonderful collaborative arts programming. You can help by being social and forwarding this to friends and family. Post to Facebook and Twitter and email. Make an impact!
