Vision: Building a world where all students have the freedom to be creative, be heard, be understood and be respected. MAPS is all about bringing poets and musicians together from different backgrounds and life experiences to accomplish writing and performing complete songs. Your school can have a MAPS program that accomplishes both individual learning in poetry and songwriting and also brings both the students and disciplines together in preparation for and completion of a public performance.
