500 Ways to Cope

About This Project

Prince George's County Public School's Department of Creative and Performing Arts and the Department of Student Services created this virtual initiative in response to the increased levels of stress associated with Covid-19. The goal was to encourage our community to use an art form to express ways to cope with stress and improve wellness.
