14 15 Participation Fifteen art classes from 12 Denver Public Schools and one DPS “superintendent team” headed by Michael Bennett transformed the cows, known as “mini-moos” – as each one is one-third the size of the cows in CowParade, weighing in at 30 pounds and measuring four feet long by three feet high – into incredible works of art. Work on the mini-moo collection began in February with students from across all quadrants of the DPS district: COWPARADE • Lake Middle School GRAZING GUIDE • Skinner Middle School Larimer Arts Association for • Centennial K-8 the Cows in Schools program • Greenlee K-8 • Kaiser K-6 • Denver School of the Arts (3 cows) Larimer Arts Association (LAA) was selected to conduct this year’s • Bruce Randolph Middle “Cows in Schools” program as part of its fourth installation of the School internationally award-winning Project LEAD (LARIMER presents • Kunsmiller Middle School EMERGING ARTISTS of DENVER).

Through �������������������������������������������������� other programming such as Project LEAD, LAA ����������������������������������������������������� is poised to offer arts �������������������������������������������������� options to those schools ��������������������������������������������������������� that lack such resources. �������������������������������������������� It is the core belief of LAA that exposure to the arts aids in many ������������������������������������������������������ other areas of education and a child’s growth. Its initiatives were ���������������������������������� developed with the knowledge that a well-rounded education is the cornerstone for success and will improve the quality of life for those in the community.

Project LEAD is produced by the Larimer Arts Association, a 501(c)(3) nonprofi t organization committed to arts education and awareness in downtown Denver. Its mission is to promote, stimulate and encourage the cultural welfare of Denver through interactive cultural events and cooperative arts programming for emerging artists. Other programming includes the award-winning La Piazza dell’Arte. LAA is a Denver SCFD Tier III organization.
