About Me

.

Our mission: We are a detroit based non-profit organization that provides access to fine and performing arts education to at-risk youth in Detroit. With the closing of public schools and lack of crutial art, music, and gym classes we decided to try and replace those outlets of expression. With the help of local studios we have a group of bright, creative, and enegetic kids that are exploring the world of art and dance.

Fun-loving, free-spirited, creative kids and adults. Detroit-based studios willing to participate in our adventure. Bands willing to collaborate to help raise funds for our classes.
