All types of artists are welcome; painters, actors, writers, rappers, singers, musicians, sculptors, etc. We not only push them towards their dreams but we support them in dealing with obstacles that would try to stop them from reaching their full potential such as su***de, drugs, violence, and prison. They develop methods of perseverance, confidence, reserve, and how cope with negative situations
. We receive peace of mind in knowing we equipped them with the skills to survive. The goal is to help them pursue their dreams and enhance their quality of life. We have an application process. Admitted members are introducing to new information, ideas, avenues of art exposure, and training. They also preform two theatrical/visual performances per year and participate in an annual outing. Our research shows that producing the theatrical performances gives the families of our members a sense of association, understanding, and reassurance that their child is involved in something positive. It also shows that providing a summer trip helps participants cope with separation anxieties that arise when our program breaks for the summer. We are a 501C, all contributions are tax deductible.
