Broadway Bound Kids is a transformative and inclusive community that inspires young lives through the performing arts.
Established in 2004, Broadway Bound Kids is a nonprofit providing a transformative and inclusive environment that inspires youth through performing arts education. We provide comprehensive interactive programs for Pre-K through 12th Grade in the performing arts that focus on enhancing technical skills, social emotional learning, confidence, connection, mindfulness, and creativity. Inclusion and access are central to our programming and organizational culture as we work to break down societal and financial barriers for youth, their families, and their communities. We cultivate communities of open hearts and minds amongst a diverse cross section of youth in New York City and beyond by enabling every student to explore all they can be, on stage and off.
Broadway Bound Kids’ Inclusion, Belonging and Access Statement:
Broadway Bound Kids is committed to the ongoing work of Inclusion, Access and Belonging. Fostering an environment of belonging and inclusion drives our organizational culture, and our board, staff, and Teaching Artists are committed to living those values. We vow to be better allies for the diverse populations we serve by constantly challenging ourselves to foster a culturally responsive community.We will create safe and brave spaces that encourage empathy and belonging, practice trauma-informed education, bring down barriers of access, and amplify the voices of our students and artists. This involves ongoing assessment and refinement of practices, policies and procedures. These goals are built into our strategic plan, which can be reviewed here.
We recognize the evolving nature of this statement as we continue to learn and grow. Broadway Bound Kids believes that we can achieve change by working collaboratively with our young people, their families, and our community of supporters.
