At last week’s Community Pantry, our friends from On the House came through to provide hot meals and music, in addition to a box of groceries from Food Bank NYC. Shout out to our member Kaylee, aka DJ KK, who entertained us and kept spirits high.

📸 Composition, Portraiture and Identity
In our high school photography class, students used self-portraiture to explore and reveal their personality. Some photographed objects as symbols, while others decided to dress up or share a natural look as a way to represent themselves.
🌱 Gardening & Crafts from Home
From homemade lip balm, seed tapes, and micro-greens, our virtual gardening and crafts class continues to have fun, holistically, from home!
Last week, members made seed tape using toilet paper and glue. Seeds are embedded in the paper, which is then planted in the soil, allowing you to optimize your plant spacing without the need to measure. We can’t wait to plant these on our rooftop farm this Spring!
Celebrate Black History Month with us!
On our socials, we’re sharing staff and member picks.
Simone Biles is the most decorated gymnast in the United States, with a total of 30 Olympic and World Championship medals. Last Winter, we were honored to have her visit the Girls Club, where she talked to members and families about unfair beauty standards and her road to greatness.
