Arts for Learning has helped thousands of students and
teachers keep classrooms creative since 2000. With over 100 different programs
in locations all over Miami-Dade County, children of all ages and incomes have
the chance to use music, dance, poetry, theatre, painting and more to learn
about the world around them.
According to Executive Director Sheila Womble, Arts for
Learning exists as a resource for teachers and students to use art as a teaching
medium.
“Our true mission is to advance teaching and learning in
and through the arts,” she explained. |

Duck Testicles Need Not Apply
Jennifer Rubell’s Real Life Entertaining
Sticks to Real Life Recipes
By Mary Damiano

Author Jennifer Rubell, cooking and
preparing for the Miami launch party for her book, Real Life Entertaining |
|
“Well, they don’t taste like chicken,” Jennifer Rubell
says of duck testicles, which she recently ate at pal Mario Battalia’s New
York restaurant. “In texture they’re closest to liver, but they’re not
bad. They were sauced so I couldn’t get the full flavor.”
While Rubell has eaten the exotic dish, it’s not the kind of food she’d ever serve.
Just as the title of her new book, Real Life Entertaining, says, Rubell
is more interested in cozy, homey, and most of all, easy food that will get a
host or hostess in and out of the kitchen to spend time with friends and family. |
