We are one of the 2024 TWA Grant Recipients for

ALMAAHH Beyond Borders

We will be exposing underserved youth to the arts through experimentation in diverse artistic disciplines in order to increase creativity and identity awareness that in turn will encourage logical thinking, positively influence literacy, overall academic performance, outlook in life and open them up to imagine and create their own world through art.

We will provide students with a booklet containing a series of art lessons for them to experiment even outside of school. The booklet will be available for free to other teachers and general public.
