Bed-Stuy Story

The Musical

This was a Social Justice project that culminated in a musical. The youth for 6 months were engaged in educational workshops by professionals in perspective fields which included Racial Profiling, Violence Prevention, Peer Pressure Awareness, and Gang Awareness. Through the arts youth participants had an opportunity to take a proactive role in addressing their concerns about issues impacting their daily lives. Participants were involved in script development and the overall message of the production.
