THE CHALLENGE

This center has the following objectives:
- To serve as a hub for multicultural community initiatives.
- To offer free bilingual programs for 15,000 East and Southeast Baltimore residents.
- To provide education and training opportunities for 5,000 underserved PreK-12 students annually with visual arts programs, theater, cooking and nutrition, dance, and media arts.
- To provide summer programs and camps for 300 children annually.
- To increase employment and training opportunities for artists, entrepreneurs, community organizers, and teachers.
- To provide internships and job training for 65 teens and young adults annually.
