Planned Parenthood/Neighborhood Music School

At Planned Parenthood, Deanna, the woman in Education who helped me set up the display and has the disposable camera to document poems, reports that all is going well. The set-up is on the counter by check-in. She has taken a photo of the poetry every 2-3 days and says that people have been writing in the notebook, a few lines apiece. I'm going to go check it out in the next week. I'll probably have to bring another disposable camera, too.

Apparently, there hasn't been much activity at Neighborhood Music School, according to Lisa, my point person there. The sign isn't big enough to attract attention, and the set-up is in a hallway where people tend to just pass through. I'm going to perhaps make a bigger sign, geared toward kids, and add crayons and larger sheets of paper. I am wondering if, as I saw at my first laundromat visit, maybe the poetry is just an excuse to have that pad of paper to let people write what they want?
