Why?

Why do I value community engagement as an artist, leader, producer and director?

Through community engagement, we will have an opportunity to better understand the needs of its members. It will give us an opportunity to produce projects that will encourage them to be active members. Effective engagement creates an environment that promotes empowerment, integration and participation between different members of the community. It's a win-win situation when communication is open and engaging. A successful project happens when different parts of the community join together to achieve the same goal.
