Brings the arts into communities across the state and makes creators out of everyone in the room, library, fairground, or wherever a community gathers. - Community and Recreation Centers: artists teach photography groups, lead kids in creating murals, guide youth as they grow their skills in songwriting, spoken word, hip hop, and more. - Festivals and Parks: artists present workshops, lead art activity booths and perform main stage shows for festivals and parks. - Libraries: COMPAS artists perform for children's storytime, create with older adults during weekly art-making sessions, lead hands-on workshops for kids during out-of-school days, and put on some killer celebrations of literature, arts, and culture in libraries across the state. With libraries becoming prime community gathering and media centers, they are an exceptional place to engage in the arts. - Summer School or After School Programs: any of the Creative Classroom programs can be modified for out-of-school time programs. Kids make new connections, grow a mastery of skills, and have more fun than they ever expected. - Youth Employment Program: uses apprenticeship concepts for small cohorts of teens to learn and create with professional artists in a work environment. Apprenticeship projects take place during the summer in the visual, literary, or performing arts.
