On the latest edition of our fabulous drawing show, our host, Elana Amity, told the kids about the great Broadway tune, “June is Bustin Out all Over.” She demonstrated how to sketch the song’s lyrical scenes on paper, creating a large landscape of meadows and hills, then the kids helped her add funny characters, all celebrating the month of June!
Some kids also called in to request lessons on how to draw Amos the hospital therapy dog, Elmo wearing headphones, and one of the Mario Brothers and we happily obliged.
Wishing everyone a great start to your summer season! And thank you to the staff of Mount Sinai for having us.

St. Mary’s Hospital 06/02/19

At all our events, we collaborate with the kids, asking them to help us design characters and color them in then they keep everything we make together. Here our Ink Well gents are smiling big after a wonderful day, drawing with the children at St. Mary’s Hospital, where we drew bat and spider men, Toms & Jerrys, and lots of caricatures!

These children are dealing with serious life-limiting issues like Down syndrome, severe burns, and other difficulties but they never fail to bring joyous hearts and tireless creativity to every one of our events. We are grateful to share this special time.

Thanks to our new Event Director, Tim Savage, for taking charge and thanks to our stalwart volunteers, Stefano Imbert, Ray Alma and Dennis Calero.
