This is one of several events the PRC held in the month of April.

The workshop was a delight, with parents and children taking pictures with the Easter Bunny. Elvira Castillo of Westchester Latinos Unidos and Elizabeth Smith, the parent liaison of Denzel Washington School of Arts, read aloud “Can I Have a Dollar?” by Rich Holley in both English and Spanish. Free toys, books, and coloring books were given to the children, donated by Westchester Latinos Unidos.
