Our Mission
Moving Education Institute co-creates with youth and communities liberatory spaces where youth and their communities discover, develop, and express individual and collective gifts.
Empowering Community Engagement Through the Arts
Supporting communities in exploring topics of interest, our purpose is to foster engagement through the arts—dance, photography, foodways, theater, sewing, music, visual arts, play, recreation, and conversations. We achieve this purpose, in part, through workshops that utilize movement, meditation, and yoga to enhance interactive skills grounded in curiosity and support. Our curricula and workshops center critical thinking, history, and community, empowering participants to connect with a personal sense of agency.
Fostering Growth & Connection
Human beings are unique due to their lived experiences. They are active participants in their own education, making meaning of their lives and the environments in which they live. As such, they are entitled to a stimulating educational environment that challenges them to grow physically and mentally while developing socio-emotional dexterity to engage with others.
