FOUNDER'S QUOTE
"The idea of encouraging our youth to speak through their unique art forms is one whose time has come. We intend to keep this culture going as a way to effect heightened awareness among parents, and valuable community involvement in the lives of Long Island’s children, as we see and hear them express themselves in healthy innovative ways.”
