On November 17, the Pittsburgh Children’s Museum hosted the “Gong Show” highlighting youth projects throughout Pittsburgh. The projects included presentations by Attack Theatre, BeatBots LLC, Pittsburgh Toonseum, Art Energy Design, and many others.

Among the projects, Smart Futures exhibited the opportunities of our PA eMentoring program for Pennsylvania students. In order to keep the creative mood flowing, David Mosey, Kristina Cenkner, and Romy Banks peformed a fun skit simulating the PA eMentoring experience between the teacher, mentor, and student.

With bangs of the gong, some laughs, and a few surprises, initiatives toward youth development took the spotlight. Many organizations are dedicated to providing educational services for Pittsburgh’s kids and the “Gong Show” displayed the variety of education available. Smart Futures was proud to participate in the event and be an example of youth development services Pittsburgh has to offer.
