One Book One School is a project that creates a common culture through the school-wide exploration of a single book. Powell GT Magnet Elementary School of the Visual and Performing Arts has been involved in this project for the past six years. This year’s book, Yesterday I Had the Blues, by Jeron Ashford Frame, with illustrations by R. Gregory Christie, is a poetic interpretation of the emotional qualities of different colors. Each kindergarten through fifth grade class will study this book and its themes in a variety of ways. This period of study will culminate in a collaborative, multi-media performance inspired by the book. The colorful performance will take place in six acts; each act is a different color and may contain any combination of art, dance, theatre, music or video. Please join us on Thursday, March 19^th at 7 pm or Friday, March 20^th at 2:15 pm. at Powell’s multi-purpose room. We promise you’ll leave feeling in the pink!
