Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts

The Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts in conjunction with the City of Montgomery will undertake Art in the Afternoon, a series of free after-school art lessons children grades 3-6 in high-crime neighborhoods. The program is a component to the U. S. Department of Justice’s “Weed and Seed” program, whose goal is to involve all levels of the community in an effort to prevent, control, and reduce violent crime, drug abuse, and gang activity. The ultimate goal is neighborhood revitalization through prevention, intervention and treatment achieved through family services, organized recreation, job, and life skills development.
