“I’ve grown certain that the root of all fear is that we’ve been forced to deny who we are.” according to Francis Moore. Life is a constant struggle to find out who we are. As we open our eyes to new levels of interests and talent we find that they can be used both for the gratification of one’s self and one’s community.
Identity is a project designed to help provide the youth in our community with the opportunity to work with mentors in the form of local artists. We anticipate an unprecedented attendance for Identity (#), where student mentors will be showing their work alongside their mentees in a collaborative effort to enrich the lives of everyone involved. Regardless of the path in life we choose, creativity i,s an important strength that we want to share.
