Marillac Fine Arts

The goal of our ASM Program at Marillac is to give teens the opportunity to explore creative possibilities while learning the responsibility of employment. Teens have the opportunity to see first hand the importance of commitment and team work in creating a performance piece. During the summer we create a full length theatrical piece in 6 weeks. Teens in our program have leadership roles in all aspects of our productions. Teens design and create the sets, choreography the dance, write the piece and perform. Many of our performances also include spoken word poetry and teens often focus on their own experiences with violence and stopping violence in the community. We hope to continue to create relevant performances that help to build the confidence and experience of those involved.
