| Create Now! continually arranges for the high-risk and at-risk youth that we serve to have opportunities to experience many types of artistic expression. We’ve learned that even one such experience can deeply impact a child. For most of these kids, it’s the first time that they’ve ever attended a performance at a popular venue, or been exposed to different types of music and theater. We offer cultural excursions to hundreds of at-risk youth throughout the year. | |
