2026 PEACE Partnership Highlight ✨The Things We Carry, The Things We Put Down brought together 40 ELA/ENL students at Brentwood High School in an exploration of memory, identity, and community through artmaking. Guided by librarian and academic specialist Pam Gustafson and museum educator / multidisciplinary artist Laura Yacoubi, students used sculpture, photography, printmaking, drawing, and spoken word to transform found objects into powerful “living artifacts.” The project culminated in a moving presentation that connected personal stories to broader ideas of belonging, history, and community through acts of making and curation. 🤍 This partnership was made possible through PAC’s PEACE Project (Partners in Education, Arts and Community Empowerment), a U.S. Department of Education Assistance for Arts Education funded program.
