Arts & Culture
June 28 - July 2, 2021
​
The Arts + Culture program allows youth to explore music, dance, or art through master classes with resident artists and the exploration of various cultures through the arts.
Youth will focus on art forms and the similarities and differences to celebrate various cultures.
Our master classes are all hands on and engaging! Youth will learn from some of the areas most accomplished, art, dance, music and spoken word artists. They will also relate all art forms to civics through an engaging review of past and present social movements.
​
The plan is to conduct live in person classes if permitted. However, the program may be in a live on-line format with interactive small group classes, and our signature PtC Discovery Box to provide tools required for a hands-on immersive experience.

Culture & Arts Escapade
Dates To Be Announced
​
The Arts & Culture Escapade is an adventure of history and the arts via exploration and cultural themed classes that begin in Washington, DC and continue with exploration to rural cultural sites in Maryland, and Virginia.
​
The agenda includes local cultures of the Blue Ridge and Appalachian Mountains, Chesapeake Bay, Potomac River, and the Atlantic with a focus on the arts.
​
As participants explore the uniqueness and similarities, they will document through artistic presentations using various forms of arts, the camera lens, journaling, and social media.
​
This program format is intended to be live and may change to meet protocols of the pandemic by using virtual tools to explore, along with our signature PtC Discovery Box to bring all elements to life.
PtC Corps & Meet-Up is a dynamic series of youth development programs and activities that are hosted in the Washington, DC metropolitan area (DC, Maryland and Virginia) to provide cultural enrichment through the arts, STEM (science, technology, engineering, math), social justice and civic engagement programs during out-of-school time.
