Every child has a creative spark. Our job at Green Street is to ignite that spark, by helping our students identify and nurture their talents. Our afterschool curriculum includes courses in Sound Recording, Songwriting, Music, Videography, Art and Science, Photojournalism, Playwriting and Performance, Choreography, Salsa, Breakdancing, Tap, and Visual Arts. Green Street gives young people the chance to explore their creativity, increase their self-esteem, cultivate their appreciation of the arts, and develop practical skills for everyday life.

The Green Street After School Program is designed to provide affordable, quality arts education to Middletown area residents between the ages of 7-18. We offer the only multidisciplinary arts programming in a state-of-the arts facility that is low or no-cost to qualifying families and in such close proximity to their homes. We currently have 85 youth enrolled in the program. Over half the students enrolled in our program reside in the North End, whose predominant population is Black and Latino, with high rates of poverty and youth-at-risk; our location is so convenient for them that many are able to walk home after our program. This past year, 98% of all our students received scholarship awards.

 

We would like to thank our sponsors...
