First Ever, All Camden Youth Podcast!!!
"SPEAKING DA YOUTH"
Students at the IDEA Center for the Arts created a podcast where they discuss issues relevant to them in the city they live - Camden, NJ. It's a mixture of the good things that are going on, along with discussions on some of the city's areas of opportunity. In either case, it's the voice of the youth that are being displayed and being heard!!! Click on the link below to see the podcast on YouTube, and stay tuned for more episodes!!!
THANK YOU "PMDI Signs"
Word Art on the Stage
We are so grateful to PMDI Signs for their wonderful donation of Word Art installed on our stage! And a big shout-out to Tina Ruzio, who worked with us on the design and came out to do the installation; just an amazing person! While the headlines of the day would like us to believe that the world is just a horrible place, the people and organizations that continue to reach out and show their support, constantly reinforces our belief that life is ALSO filled with goodness; it's just a matter of what you choose to see and believe.
Welcome to the Creative Zone!
Nurture your artistic passion in an open, accepting oasis - in the heart of creative Camden!
IDEA is a friendly, welcoming community that helps nurture the creative talents of area youth and gives them the freedom to explore their artistic passion fully in a safe, reassuring environment.
In our brand new, state-of-the-art facility where students are encouraged to express the beauty of their own spirit – often for the first time. Where they can find a home for their most brave and intimate artistic impulses, as well as a training ground for well-paid careers in the creative economy.
For over 20 years our professional instructors have worked to nurture students’ artistic sensibilities and bring meaning to their lives and their future careers. Together, we witness the miracle of seeing youth really wake up creatively and gain a fresh, new perspective on who they are. And who they can be! We offer arts programs that unleash the power of creativity.
