The Black Literacy and Arts Collaborative (B.L.A.C.) Project is a tax-exempt, non-profit organization that was created as a means to cultivate a unique approach to visual and performance art, literacy, business and financial education, personal-efficacy, and mental health through fostering creative collaboration, education, and civic and community engagement with a specific aim towards positively impacting "at-risk" youth, communities, entrepreneurs and small businesses. The B.L.A.C. Project aims to serve all communities but has a specific focus on underprivileged and "at-risk" BIPOC populations nation-wide. Our programs serve as a connection point to educate our communities at the intersection of art, culture, and politics. Through artistic expression and engagement, we will empower our communities, change the landscape, and inspire new realities.
