PAUL WILSON & MARY ABENDROTH

Spring 2002 has been an absolutely crazy time for us, but also very rewarding. We have done three week-long school residencies, in Ashland, Wi., Brainerd, Mn. and Montevideo, Mn. teaching elementary kids to value special things in life like making your own music and dance and doing things TOGETHER. We have become such a fragmented society in so many ways, it's scary! It's nice to see the kids having so much fun at this, because it also helps us adults to remember that it still can be this way!! Don't forget! Okay? Here are some pictures of our week with the kindergarten kids in Brainerd, Mn.
