Along with the visual arts display, there will be live performances from members of HMI’s Music Masters program, an open group where all musically inclined youth can create their own beats, write lyrics, and perform covers of their favorite tracks. The event will also feature dance routines performed by the newest members of HMI’s Dance Intensive group, a program designed for physical creativity to take shape in the form of choreographed sequences to the sound of meaningful songs chosen by the participating youth members.
Three nights only:
- Wednesday October 25th (Donor Night – by invite only)
- Thursday October 26th (Youth members, and staff night)
- Friday October 27th (Open to the public and chosen family)
Hetrick-Martin Institute is grateful to supporters of its Arts & Culture programs, a focal point of HMI’s wrap-around comprehensive programming and supportive services, namely: American Eagle Outfitters Foundation, Joseph Leroy and Ann C Warner Fund, and the Keith Haring Foundation.
