Mission and Program Overview

Mission

The detroit creativity project, ("dcp") was incorporated as a california non-profit organization with a mission to empower and inspire detroit's young people through improvisation, an art form that helps students build confidence and develop a creative and collaborative approach to their lives.

Faced with a challenging economy and tightening budgets, schools nationwide have substantially reduced funding for arts programming. The detroit creativity project (dcp) was founded in 2011 by working artists who believe that arts education provides a critical element of learning for all students, and is not an expendable part of the curriculum. Whether painting, playing music, or taking the stage, the arts allow students to develop skills they need now and in the future.
