✨ **Dandelion Out in the Community!** ✨

Dandelion had the honor of being at **Niles West and Niles North High School** partnering in their **International Cultural Week**—a beautiful celebration filled with food, dance, art, and meaningful connection. 🌍🎨

Students created **culturally inspired vision boards and masks**, while enjoying face painting by Dandelion Art Coalition Partner **Magda Perez**. Through art-making and shared experiences, students explored culture, identity, and self-expression in ways that were both joyful and empowering.

We are deeply grateful for the opportunity to support initiatives that **embrace culture, honor individuality, and create inclusive spaces** where young people can celebrate who they are and how they see themselves. The students truly enjoyed the activities and learning alongside our **Dandelion Artist Alliance artists**, making the experience even more impactful.

Thank you for welcoming Dandelion into your school community—we’re inspired by the creativity, curiosity, and openness of these incredible students. 💛🌼
