In the early morning hours on Saturday, April 26th, our community arts space the home to youth creativity, wellness programs, and cultural expression was vandalized and burglarized. Instruments, computers, dance gear, and vital equipment were stolen or destroyed. What took years of sacrifice, donations, and hard work to build was lost in a matter of moments.

We are devastated… but not broken.

We’ve spent over a decade nurturing a safe, inclusive space where young artists, dancers, musicians, and families come to heal, create, and grow. Our programs serve hundreds annually, providing free or low-cost access to performance arts, mentorship, wellness support, and education.

Now, we need your help.

Every donation big or small will go directly toward:

Replacing stolen musical instruments and tech equipment

Rebuilding our youth dance wardrobe and classroom supplies

Strengthening security to prevent future incidents

Continuing our free and low-cost programs despite this loss

Help us rise from this and continue the mission.

Share with friends, family, and anyone who believes in the power of the arts.

Together, REBUILD hope, REIGNITE dreams, and RENEW our mission. We will come back stronger than ever.

With gratitude,

Jasmyne D. Watts, MPH

Executive Director
