The G.A.M.E.

Graffiti Art Mentoring & Education
The G.A.M.E. is a structured aerosol/graffiti artist-based program designed to mentor and educate youth and young adult artists on the aerosol/graffiti art culture, history and techniques by allowing them the opportunity to create full-scale murals. Our goal is to bring positive recognition and increase respect for the artists and the culture of the art form, with the hope of breaking down some of the stereotypical barriers within the community that prohibit the acceptance of legal aerosol/graffiti art murals.

WINGS

S.A.S.E. Wings is an innovative mentoring program designed for avid young writers, ages 9-19, desiring more support and guidance than is provided in the traditional school setting. Each participant is matched with an artistic mentor from the creative writing MFA and PhD programs of Hamline University and the University of Minnesota. The mission of Wings is to make the literary arts accessible to a culturally and socio-economically diverse group of young writers eager for artistic development.

Youth Media Programs (PCTV)

Through their involvement with PCTV, participants develop skills in media literacy, video production and design, including techniques in camera operation, sound, lighting, and editing. They also gain abilities in photography and web design and layout. Simultaneously, students begin strengthening community ties and educating others on important issues.
