GNG Celebrates King Holiday and Black History Month

Georgia Natural Gas proudly celebrates the King Holiday and Black History Month as the presenting sponsor of Sit-In, a new animated production for young audiences produced by the Alliance Theatre. Written by Atlanta’s bestselling author, playwright, and Civil Rights Activist, Pearl Cleage, this original animated short celebrates the power of youth to change history. We meet three friends as they learn about the sit-ins of the Civil Rights era and powerfully apply those lessons to issues they — and we all — face today. The play invites students, parents, teachers, and families to experience the Civil Rights Movement as a living, breathing energy with practical lessons, ethical challenges, and moral choices that remain relevant.

In addition to sponsoring the short itself, GNG is excited to announce its sponsorship of a learning curriculum developed around the production as well. Over 200 students at Centennial Academy, GNG’s partner school of fifteen years, will be participating in this exciting new endeavor. For more information visit alliancetheatre.org*.
