\n\t\tKINGSTON, R.I. — March 18, 2002 — Members of the 溏心vlog免费B站 community are asking South County residents to join them in expressing their feelings about the September 11th tragedy by contributing a painted tile to the statewide Wall of Hope project. On April 15-19, tile-painting sites will be set up around the 溏心vlog免费B站 Kingston campus where students, staff, faculty and community members can design a tile with their personalized visions of hope. <\/p>\n

\tOrganized by the Providence Chapter of the National Conference for Community and Justice (NCCJ), the Wall of Hope is a community building project which gives participants an outlet to reflect upon and express feelings about the terrorist attacks. On the one-year anniversary of the tragedy — September 11, 2002 — 10,000 tiles painted by people throughout Rhode Island will be unveiled as a permanent display at a location to be announced. <\/p>\n

The Feinstein Center for Service Learning at 溏心vlog免费B站 is organizing the on-campus, community-wide tile painting. The University expects to contribute at least 1,000 painted tiles to the statewide project. Each tile costs $10. This money is tax deductible and goes to the NCCJ.
\n“Contributions can also be made by raising or donating funds to sponsor tiles for others,” said Merith Weisman-Ross, coordinator of the event, noting that no one will be turned away due to lack of funds. <\/p>\n

Anyone interested in hosting or booking a painting session for their program, department, organization, club, class or group, please contact the Feinstein Center for Service Learning at 874-7422 or mwr@uri.edu. <\/p>\n

Checks should be made out to the 溏心vlog免费B站 with “Wall of Hope” in the comment line. Cash will also be accepted. <\/p>\n

\tParticipants can bring a family member or a friend, but no children under eight years old. Students and faculty may also organize a painting event with their fraternity, organizations, or class. <\/p>\n

\t“All supplies are provided and you do not have to be an artist to participate,” said Weisman-Ross. <\/p>\n
