Turning Barton Elementary
“This is a story of change from within, where creativity becomes both catalyst and cure.”
Directed by Fay Hauser-Price
Turning Barton Elementary captures the transformation of a struggling school through the power of art. What begins as a creative intervention quickly evolves into a cultural shift, as students find their voices, classrooms come alive, and a renewed sense of pride takes hold. Through intimate, on-the-ground moments, the film reveals how artistic expression can unlock joy, connection, and possibility—turning a once-overlooked space into a thriving community. (Documentary, 7 minutes)
