The PORT is excited to announce an upcoming partnership with the local arts education group Add Verb Productions! Starting in May, students in grades 6-8 will be invited to participate in a "Say It Loud" program that will meet on Wednesdays at the teen center.
"Say It Loud" uses the power of hip hop and spoken word to create a safe and supportive environment for teens to speak up, voice their opinions, and tell their point of view. To offer this program, Add Verb collaborates with local songwriters, poets, and hip-hop/spoken word artists to facilitate workshops and intensives to help youth create pieces that reflect their unique perspective.
The best part is that there is NO COST to Freeport teens to participate in these great workshops. We just encourage you to sign up ahead of time by calling Rec & Community Ed at 865-6171.
