The Arts Project will be implemented at our Castle Hill and Soundview Locations, 625 Castle Hill Avenue, Bronx, NY 10473 & 1930 Randall Avenue, Bronx, NY 10473. Tentatively, our Arts Program will include Music Production, Martial Arts, Video Game Design, Multi-sensational Music (instruments), Culinary Arts, and Podcasting.
What motivated your organization to apply for this project?
This Arts program is directly related to the impactful work our organization does on a daily basis. We are uniquiely constructed to provide intentional programming for our youth.
How do you think this project will make a difference in the community?
This project will open up a new dimension of the arts for youth. Youth often associate the arts primarily with drawing and painting, yet the field encompasses so much more.
List at least one thing you're excited about related to this project!
We’re thrilled to reintroduce instruments to our youth. We believe this is a lost art in NYC schools and are eager to bring it back through our program.
