At KKC we believe that everyone is an artist. We expose, educate, and empower youth through quality multidisciplinary art experiences. We use art and creativity as a positive force in their lives for personal growth, social justice, actionable compassion, and community improvement 0 0 10303 0 0 Breaking Barriers with AI: AI Technology and training is not an art and music tool that is easily accessible to homeless youth. It can be cost-prohibitive, as most homeless youth do not have access to necessary hardware, software, and training. Because AI is currently a major emerging art technology, it is critical for emerging artists to learn its implications and how to use it. This is particularly important for homeless youth, who often struggle to stay up-to-date on art and technology trends that can provide meaningful knowledge and economic opportunity. Over the course of the residency we introduced the youth to the process of creating a 3-5 minute music video using AI and 3D software, animation software, and animation characters, backgrounds, and HDRI worlds. Each youth created their own unique videos and characters, and were able to access the programming at whatever level felt comfortable to them. We provided multiple ways to engage ranging from simple character animation to full-on video production and allowed youth to select a participation style that matched their learning and engagement levels. Youth and the teaching artist also produced three AI music videos tutorials and four "4TheKulture" video podcasts for the KKC YouTube channel. We are proud to say we served 116 youth and were able to produce some amazing work from them. 7402 0 0 Capturing Homelessness: Shining Light on Our Perspectives Photography Project. 54 youth participated in this program which aimed to raise awareness and understanding of the challenges faced by homeless youth. Participants received instruction in photography skills and they explored their surroundings to capture moments that resonate with their experiences. They presented their work to friends, family, and interested parties sharing their personal reflections and thoughts in Kulture Klub's gallery space. This project was designed for youth experiencing homelessness, many of whom face historical trauma and limited access to the arts. KKC has sought guidance from local photographer Roosevelt Mansfield, who has his work displayed not only on the streets of Minneapolis, but around the globe 27532 0 0 Creative Arts Therapy: This program was led by Pauline Moll, an artist and licensed Creative Arts Therapist. The goal of our Creative Arts Therapy program was to provide accessible, arts-based therapeutic practices that support our youth in building skills that help them manage their mental health and improve their life circumstances. Over the run of the program we have experienced consistent growth in attendance and positive outcomes. Because our programming is drop-in based, each week's Creative Arts Therapy programming day differed from the week before, bringing different youth together in community to participate in the day's activities. Each session was a mix of regular attendees and new attendees who participated in warm up exercises such as a question-of-the-day or a group game that relaxed the youth and built trust. Following the warm up, the youth worked on an art-based activity, either separately or as a group, then reflected and discussed their work and feelings and insights. Afterwards, youth were welcome to stay in our studio space and socialize, continue their art activity, or engage in another art-based activity. 125+ youth were able to benefit from Creative Arts Therapy. 140946 0 61602 Ongoing mission focused programming that engages art and artistic practice to provide enriching multidisciplinary opportunities for youth experiencing homelessness and artists to grow individually and to transform community 140946 0 61602 186183 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 3 0 1 4 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 4 4 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 MN X Siddeeqah Shabazz 6122521248 41 N 12th St Minneapolis MN 55403 Siddeeqah Shabazz Executive Director 40 0 X X 20572 0 0 Romisha Gray President/Treasurer 1 0 X X 0 0 0 Zachary Bagaason Vice President 1 0 X X 0 0 0 Simona Zappas Board Member 1 0 X 0 0 0 Christina Jacobson Board Member 1 0 X 0 0 0 20572 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 180908 207726 0 388634 0 2 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 388636 2 0 0 X 62975 44712 18263 119320 67512 21648 30160 14446 8879 3148 2419 8875 8875 35784 33522 2262 760 760 12177 4932 4043 3202 1450 1212 238 119 113 6 3698 3698 2542 2542 Program and participant expenses 14018 14018 0 0 Events 8340 7585 0 755 0 284504 186183 61025 37296 42777 46663 510 103335 177884 7405 3075 38984 8306 1318 30678 154835 258810 938 781 938 781 X 85854 86561 68043 171468 153897 258029 154835 258810 104132 0 0 0 0 0 X 1 0 1 0 X 155015 250144 240551 225742 316420 1187872 155015 250144 240551 225742 316420 1187872 793354 394518 1 3 4 25003 14885 19401 5002 0 64291 1252167 0 0.31507 0.26141 X Sources of support come from foundations and individuals and a few government funding sources (MN State Arts Board and Metropolitan Regional Arts Board).
