Teton Literacy Center

Our Philosophy: Family Literacy

Picture
A family literacy approach is the most effective way of achieving our vision of a 100% literate community. TLC offers prevention and intervention services for families with children in Kindergarten through 12th grade. Our goal is to strengthen literacy skills for the family unit through tutoring, workshops, classes and home visits. 

Literacy Lab Student Art Opening

Friday, February 28th
5 - 6:30pm at Cowboy Coffee
The Art Association of Jackson Hole has teamed up with Teton Literacy Center for an outreach project titled “Our Place in Space: A Whimsical Rendering of a Masterpiece.”
In collaboration with the Art Association of Jackson Hole, Literacy Lab students in the pre-school classes
at  Teton Literacy Center built a mural rendering the famous photograph “Tetons and the Snake River”
by Ansel Adams. These children are growing up in such a special environment; Art Association staff wanted to honor the beauty of Jackson Hole with the creativity of these children.
The Art Association of Jackson Hole is dedicated to encouraging a vital, creative community by providing everyone with exposure to, education in and enjoyment of a wide variety of art experiences.
The presentation will be on display through March 1st.
