The Fabric of Jenkintown

We are so excited to bring back The Fabric of Jenkintown!  This evening is a celebration of the diversity of the ancestry, heritage & languages of our school community. We will begin with a tour around the world, visiting our neighbors and classmates as they represent their families at tables in the gym. Then we will make our way onto the field to participate in a huge drum circle led by the amazing team at RhythmetriX, who is returning this year!

Last year, we had an incredible & diverse representation of over a dozen different countries and cultures.  We would love to see some new families join some returning families this year!  

Your table is yours to transform and we encourage you to personalize your space with whatever is meaningful and available to you. Suggestions include: flags, posters, books, snacks/foods, games/toys, photos, jewelry, clothing, textiles, souvenirs, artifacts, or recipes. You can share about the languages, traditions, customs, holidays, videos, and role models that have ancestry there too.   (Google searching and Pinterest have plenty of ideas)

Questions? email Caroline at HSAVicePresident@jtowndrakes.org
