Description:
Help Fenfa Migrant School to redecorate their classrooms with the migrant students!  We've already finished four classrooms this month and it's time to join us at the fifth!  Come join us at this event- we need your help to give the kids a better learning environment.  BEAN will provide all paint, brushes, and rollers- all you need to bring is yourself!

BEAN is "adopting" the students who live at Fenfa School who are in need of ongoing enrichment programs and activities to supplement their highly academic course load.  We are launching a series of programs to help support these students with much-needed attention and mentoriship on the model of Big Brothers/Big Sisters.  The BEAN Art program is part of this initiative.

**Note: Please RSVP at beanshanghai@gmail.com if you'd like to attend this event!  We have 30 brushes and rollers, so there are 30 spaces at this event!**

To get to Fenfa School, please take subway Line 1 to the last stop and transfer to Line 5. Get off at the Wenjing Lu Station take exit 2.  Walk straight for 7-8 minutes and make a left onto Lincang Lu; there are no street signs, but it's the street after the bridge.  If you arrive at the subway station at 1:30, you can meet up with the BEAN team and walk together.

The instructions and overview of the program are at 1:45 and we begin painting at 2:00.  Please allow yourself ample time to arrive at the school on time- it takes about 80 minutes from the city center. Please don't be late!
