Piedmont Triad Initiative for Community Arts offers welcome to the WORD project, the newest addition to our registry of community and arts organizations (listed on right).
the WORD project (TWP) "gives people the platform and tools to find their own voice and create their own poems. It is is designed to engage persons to tap into their creative spirit and find their authentic self. Whether it’s a business leadership retreat or a an after-school program for youth, whether is a one time 2-hour workshop or a 12-week workshop series, TWP encourages participants to speak their personal truth through creative writing in a non-intimidating atmosphere."
In terms of community arts collaboration, TWP is interested in K-12 education (e.g., literacy, graduation rates, achievement gap), civic engagement (e.g., community leadership, voting), community development (e.g., gang prevention, neighborhood improvement), and social capital (developing/enhancing personal relationships). TWP enjoys working with children, the elderly, and women.
Check out the list of past participants.
