A special treat and highlight of our time at the San Francisco International Film Festival was a visit at Jefferson High School in Daly City, organized by Joanne Parsont at the S.F. Film Society's program Schools at the Festival.
We spent a couple of hours with several classes of 9th graders, and their teacher Ericka Olson, who had seen 1000 Journals, and were asking Someguy and me a ton of questions. Then the real fun started: Someguy opened his box with journals and art supplies, and everyone had a go at it…
PS. A few weeks after the festival, I got an email from Paulina who wrote our visit inspired the students to start their own journal. She was hoping we could come back to see what they've done so far… Here's Paulina, adding a poem to Journal 526.
