Mission Statement
Empowering young people to become educated citizens through the arts
Description
B4 Youth Theatre was established in 2009 by partnering with THINK (Touching Humanity in Need of Kindness) in Liberia. The pilot study of an arts education model for high risk youth was implemented in 2010 at the Children’s Rescue Center Orphanage Mission in Mt. Barclay, Liberia. This program has since flourished to reach more than 400 children in Monrovia and surrounding areas outside of the capitol city, building a reputation for quality programming for children that engages them in positive community change while bolstering their academic success. this innovative learning model blends arts education with public achievement to achieve a unique synthesis of creative community change through live performances and student-led projects. Follow us as we Burn Barriers and Build Bridges to academic success and positive community change!
