Through our programs, students learn to have a greater appreciation of traditional arts, especially folk music and dances, and how these folkloric elements have transmigrated into our culture. Students also witness a creative process while learning its historical importance in our community.

WHO WE SERVE
Our constituency is a multilingual and interdisciplinary community that includes a diverse audience from urban to rural communities. As we have created a network of local artists and community organizations we partner with, we can bring a wide variety of cultural and wellness programming that recognizes and celebrates the diversity of communities in New York and abroad.
Each year, Collectives 4 Arts Music & Dance impacts thousands of people – mostly youth in underserved and marginalized communities – in the United States through cultural workshops, dance classes, and performances.
Collectives for Arts Music & Dance is committed to carrying its founder’s vision of inclusion in our members’ development and education while providing a safe environment where young people can reach their artistic potential. We hope to increase our programming offering and increase our members’ diversity to reflect the demographics it serves more closely.
