Remembering Darion Smith
The Lab would like to remember and honor Darion Smith, a student form Central Senior High who was tragically killed on Thanksgiving day.
Over the last two years, he was in the Poetry Lab and the Visual Lab, writing and recording his poetry and learning about bookmaking with Lab staff, guest artists and volunteers.
He will be missed by all of us at The Lab.
Self-Portrait Project: Can You Help?
We have a new student project posted at Donors Choose and we hope you will contribute!
Your donation will support our Self-Portrait Photography unit in the Tech/Visual Art Lab.
We are raising money to buy 3 small photo printers, 2 packs of photo paper, and 1 pack of ink. This will allow our students to print their photography and create a Gallery Show!

What's Happening @ The Lab
Every new beginning comes from some other beginning’s end, and from small beginnings come great things!
Since the year 2000, The Lab has grown from an after school writing group at Ramsey Jr. High serving just 8 students, to an Arts and Wellness-based program serving 11 special education (EBD) programs in St. Paul Public Schools. We now serve over 250 students, and over 100 educators in our district each year.
There's a lot happening at The Lab right now - more than ever before! Click here to read the full story!
