Southwest Regional Library is excited to announce the showcase of artwork by Pleasure Ridge Park (PRP) High School students as part of The Memory Project.

The Memory Project (memoryproject.org) is a youth arts organization that promotes intercultural understanding and kindness between children around the world.

Students at PRP were assigned the country of Nigeria and the artworks were delivered to a Nigerian orphanage in February, 2023.

Students enjoyed the project so much that it has continued, with many of the same students giving their time and creativity to produce new portraits for children in Colombia (Fall 2023) and India (Spring 2024).

Throughout fall 2024, you are invited to visit the exhibit in our Teen Space and experience the profound impact of these young artists’ work.
