Community Totem Pole Creation Project

After 3 years of planning by Professor Dantonio-Fryer, the community totem pole project involving Darlington Arts Center, Cheyney University of Pennsylvania and Totem Rhythms is going to become a reality!

This project is open to the public and the completed totem pole will be on permanent display on the grounds of Darlington Arts Center.

The totem pole will have stories carved and painted onto it with the stories coming from project participants right from the local community.
