Sticks and Stones is an extraordinary performance-based, artist-in-residence program that offers a proactive resolution to the problem of bullying, teasing and the like by emphasizing the importance of treating all with kindness and mutual respect. It is a requisite response not only to the proliferation of verbal and physical aggressiveness by youth in our communities, but also to the idea that kids will be kids. We believe and have clinically proven through our work that kids will be KIND if that is the expectation set by all.

Junk 2 Funk (J2F) is a high-energy, confidence-building and performance-based program that emphasizes the importance of working together as a team. J2F exposes young people to music and performance art in a non-threatening, novel manner while addressing current environmental issues, as well as many core curriculum standards, along the way. J2F is considered by many educators, parents (and kids!) to be one of the best artist-in-residence programs in New England! Think STOMP meets Blue Man Group meets the Green Police!
