We make art, and we make a difference! @CalArtsCouncil is supporting our work through their JumpStArts program. http://tiny.cc/CACGrantees2020 #ArtsCA ⁣ ⁣ @TodaysFutureSound (TFS) and @RhythmicMind1 (RM) are proud to announce that we were awarded $45,000 grant to continue and expand our current #TherapeuticBeatMaking (TBM) program led by senior TFS staff @darapnerd (Project Coordinator and Instructor) and @unlearntheworld (Instructor) in the Alameda County Juvenile Justice Center to include the Advanced Narrative Therapeutic Songwriting (ANTS) / #HipHopTherapy program. ⁣ ⁣ Since 2016, TFS has run TBM groups in the hall, with an expansion of services to include twice-weekly delivery and work with even more units than previous years, thanks to the CAC JumpStArts grant. Youth participants were able to learn the craft of beat making on @Ableton and #AbletonPush with TFS instructors, in addition to learning the basics of recording and audio engineering. ⁣ ⁣ With this year’s increased funding RM was able to come on board as a partner/collaborator. This not only allows twice-weekly TBM sessions for the unit where we have worked since 2016, but in addition a select group of youth will be able to engage in an in-depth process of rhymewriting/songwriting involving the re-authoring of their personal narratives and recording of original collaborative songs. The ANTS program, led by Rhythmic Mind, integrates mindfulness, visualization, and a host of other therapeutic modalities, informed by the most current trauma research and practice delivered through a #strengthbased culturally-responsive approach.⁣ ⁣ #JUMPStArts #hiphoped #WeGottheGrant #strengthsbased #culturallyresponsive #healingpowerofhiphop #beatmaking #hiphop #ANTS #hiphop #AbletonPushInitiative #AbletonLive #Raptherapy #incarceratedyouth (at Alameda County Juvenile Hall/Court) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_8GI9RAlov/?igshid=1i8sb2z95iicj
