Jena Holliday is launching Created to Be Arts - a Black/BIPOC led creative art program that offers workshops for youth and families. The program will provide classes in visual art, illustration, ans introduce students to other art mediums. Classes will explore work from historic and current BIPOC artists. This program's purpose is to cultivate a safe space for BIPOC youth to experience a collaborative, supportive home for creativity and to thrive through access to art resources and tools.
The Minnesota Urban Debate League is an independent program of Augsburg University. We serve over 1,200 students and provide academic debate programming to 40+ Twin Cities high school and middle schools. Two of our programs are designed to specifically address the needs of immigrant communities in Minnesota: The Spanish Debate League and the East African Debate Initiative. Both programs build students’ positive cultural identity while sharpening their academic skills.
