MIB
is an artistic, social and cultural development program designed to help youth
develop Artistically, Socially and Culturally.
MIB
offers the following:
CREATIVE WRITING An
outlet for youth to express their thoughts and feelings while making their
voices heard.
STEP & DANCE Stepping is a rising art form of an
important part of our artistic and cultural heritage. It draws movement from
African foot dances, originally conceived by miners in South Africa as an
alternative to drumming, which was banned by authorities.
THEATER Youth will
be introduced to various acting styles designed to improve confidence, creative
thinking, self-expression, communication, leadership and interpersonal skills.
VISUAL ARTS The language of visual arts is feeling, emotion, intuition,
and former idea without words. The visual arts can help give meaning to what
seems meaningless and help capture or recapture feelings and experiences.
YOUTH / FAMILY SOCIALS Families and youth will enjoy healthy extracurricular opportunities
such as talent shows, dances, socials or “girls” or “boy’s” night out.
YOUTH / FAMILY WORKSHOPS Will be offered by community partners such as Brothers
Under-Construction, Roots, Women Helping Girls, just to name a few. These
workshops will address personal and community issues we face with in our daily
lives.
