Join the Chinese National Honors Society students from East Brunswick High School (EBHS) for a drop-in event focusing on literacy and arts & crafts to promote awareness of Chinese culture.

EBHS students will offer Mandarin tutoring for all school-age children; priority will be given to students who are currently enrolled in the Mandarin program at East Brunswick schools.

In addition, EBHS students will provide cultural crafts and bilingual Chinese-English readalouds of books by Asian-American Pacific Islander (AAPI) authors.

Join medical students from Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School for an exciting hands-on event about senses!  Kids will rotate through fun activities that challenge their hearing, vision, movement, and hand skills to see how different people experience the world.  Then we’ll talk about what they felt and how we can be more kind, helpful, and inclusive to everyone.

For families with kids in kindergarten and up.
