We have big plans for the year to come in Madagascar!
2026 Programs:
After school academic tutoring, field trips & specialty workshops, English/French classes for the neighborhood, our ZA Tour (bringing original theatre & workshops to rural communities across Madagascar), a mentorship program to support our older students who teach the little ones (we have 6 teachers total), and meal support for all who participate.
At the Center:
We plan to finish the outside bathrooms (so our space can accommodate more people) and finish the classroom on our second floor.
On the U.S. front, we will continue our now annual visit to Bama Kids in Wilcox County, Alabama. Teaching artists will also head up to the Hudson Valley to work with kids in Rhinebeck and we look to expand our work to reach more New York City-based organizations too.
