Arts-In-Education Exploratory Enrichment

Eleanor Roosevelt- First Lady of The World- On Site

Presented by Sheryl Faye Miniscalco

This is a multi-media-fully immersive production! It is unique, entertaining and educational! After suffering through an unhappy childhood, losing her parents and one of her brothers, Eleanor Roosevelt figured out where she fit in and could make a difference. She was the first presidential spouse to hold press conferences, write a syndicated newspaper column and speak at a national convention. She advocated for expanded roles for women in the workplace, the civil rights of African Americans and Asian Americans, and the rights of World War II refugees. She became one of the first delegates to The United Nations and one of the top ten most admired people of the 20th century. Social Justice Issues and leadership is a strong message in this program
