Wrapping Up Our Summer Semester!

July is drawing to a close, and that means it’s time to wrap up HALO’s Summer Semester!

HALO offered many great classes in a wide variety of areas. These classes included Professional Development, Yoga, and Therapeutic Art. HALO also offered classes that will ultimately lead up to the 5th Annual Youth Fashion Show event, including a Cosmetology class taught by Paul Mitchell the School, Sewing and Fashion Design taught by local designer Whitney Manney, and Intro to Dance taught by Hannah Atwell of Point B Dance. Scroll through the pictures below for a behind-the-scenes peek at a few of these classes!

Wrapping up our Summer Semester means that HALO-KC’s 5th Annual Youth Fashion Show is just around the corner! HALO youth in many of our Summer Semester classes have been working very hard to prepare a fun and unique look to show off at the Fashion Show, a look that is inspired by the Fashion Show’s slogan – Be YOUtiful, Be YOUnique, Be YOU! The Fashion Show gives our youth a unique opportunity to express themselves in very creative ways, as well as a chance to learn about and celebrate inner beauty.

Join us at the Terrace on Grand on August 6th to support and celebrate our youth as they express their individuality, creativity, and personal style. To purchase tickets or see more information about sponsoring one of our youth, visit halokc.org!
