“The Burbank community is so rich with artistic talent, and it all starts with our children. Visiting Burbank’s past, present, and future is a wonderful way to showcase our student and community talent, while celebrating Burbank’s wonderful heritage,” said Jessica Good, Executive Director of the Burbank Arts Education Foundation.
“This is a great opportunity for both children and adults alike to be a part of Burbank’s historic journey, by exploring through art what is special about this city. I encourage everyone, young and old, to take part in this wonderful event,” stated Karen Broderick, Burbank Council PTA, Arts Co-Coordinator.
