The Arts

“At the Club I feel safe, like I am with family.”

Fine Arts activites teach young people how to express themselves through drawing, painting, collage, sculpture, ceramics, textiles and mixed media. Kids also have the opportunity to display their artwork.
Choir members are always busy with singing engagements around the community.  Most recently they traveled to Atlanta to perform at the Boys & Girls Club’s Southeastern Administrative Conference.  Students who are part of the choir must meet academic requirements as well as the character and leadership standards.

Creative Writing and Poetry helps members find their own voice and tap into their creativity is the basis behind creative writing, poetry and newspaper activities at each Club.  Activities such as “Can You Rap?” have been successful in encouraging older youth to use words to express themselves in a fun and productive environment. 

Music and Performance activities encourage members to march to their own beat. They learn the fundamentals of rhythm and music.  The Club also teaches young members learn how to read and perform music.

Dance is a fun way for Club members to get off the couch and on their feet.  Members learn new moves from hip-hop to line dances.
