🌟 Last week, we officially launched our Curators for Educators (CFE) program with a virtual info session alongside an incredible group of educators and community leaders! 🎉

We’re so excited to get started on programming and to continue creating spaces where educators can reflect, learn, and bring fresh ideas back to their classrooms and communities.

With this CDF grant, we’ll be able to deepen our engagement with families by offering interactive workshops, museum visits, & cultural resources that spark creativity & strengthen bonds. Learn more at https://t.co/R1O17DEBwG.

Exciting news: we’re honored to announce that Cool Culture has received a grant from the NYC Department of Cultural Affairs’ (NYCulture) FY2025 Cultural Development Fund (CDF)!

This investment will help us expand our family-centered programming, ensuring more parents and caregivers can experience New York’s cultural riches with their children.

As February draws to a close, we remember that the power of Black history and culture extends well beyond these 28 days. It continues throughout the year in our everyday actions, our storytelling, and our commitment to uplifting Black voices, creativity, family and culture.

Winter is here & every child deserves to stay warm! ❄️ This is our final call to donate to Cool Culture’s Coat Drive ahead of tomorrow's Winter Fun Fest. We’re collecting new coats that can be purchased on our Amazon Wish List to ensure NYC children have the clothing they need.
