LOGAN in the
Community Logan, with the assistance of President Dr. George A. Goodman, sponsored “Take a Seat in Chesterfield,” a public art project presented by the Chesterfield Arts. The project involved local school art teachers who worked with students, grades kindergarten through college, to design art graphics on a life-sized fiberglass-formed replicas’ of the famous Chesterfield chair. Students integrated science, mathematics, language arts and visual arts as they worked to complete this public art piece for the community, which Logan displayed in the lobby of its administration building. This past summer, Logan Health Centers’ interns and practitioners were active throughout the community. They provided free health screenings, participated in health fairs and presented informative lectures at more than 15 locations. Event highlights include the Myrtle Hilliard Davis Comprehensive Health Centers, Inc. Family Health and Wellness Fair and Ronald McDonald House Charities bike ride.
