On Tuesday, Joel's last day in Brasilia, he and Gersion went with many of the kids from the Centrão School in São Sabastião to the American School in Brasilia, where the student body includes the children of diplomats and others from around the world, including many Brazilians. Both Gersion and Joel gave presentations of their work to the students in an auditorium. Then, they joined their friends in the Kollors Kings graffiti crew and art teacher Zé in leading art projects with the kids, where they taught design, acrylic painting and spray painting. The students created 4 paintings of their own design! It was interesting to see the cooperation between the kids from the low income school and high income school, who usually get the opportunity to interact.
