Green: The New Pink
Pinkalicious, also known as actress Emily Lockhart, traded pink for green (metaphorically) when she gave students the “Pinkalicious Green Team Award” at gardens tended by Stonewall Jackson Elementary. Pictured with Lockhart are Stonewall Gardens instructor Mark Painter, Dallas City Councilman Sheffie Kadane, and Stonewall first-grade teacher Sarah Jane Rust and her class. The award recognizes the students for “bravely growing healthy greens,” a big acknowledgment coming from a character who learns to stop eating so many pink cupcakes and find the fun in green foods. The Dallas Children’s Theater production of “Pinkalicious the Musical” runs through Oct. 21.
