Girls Gotta Run on google video


10 min

Girls Gotta Run (www.girlsgottarun.org) provides new shoes for girls in Ethiopia who are training to be runners. The girls who run are more likely to stay in school and improve their lives and the lives of their families.

GGRF is participating in Artomatic
(http://www.artomatic.org/. Their space is on the 5th floor, Northwest Quadrant, No. B5. They are utilizing most of the space to present an exhibit about and information on the organization and the girls they help, rather than to showcase much of their art. However, they have a lovely pink notebook containing color printouts of all of the art in the Shoe Art Gallery, with instructions on how to purchase it.

Upcoming exhibits:

"Project 3: Empowered by Artistry."
Sewall-Belmont House and Museum
Exhibit runs June 11, 2008 - August 30, 2008
Opening Reception: June 18, 2008, 6:30 - 8:30 p.m.
