ENCORE CREATIVE ARTS ADVENTURES FOR Mature Adults 55+ Years 

At MBAA's FireHouse Community Arts Center, you'll find performances... classes... art galleries... special camps... places to hold your special event... exhibits... a community of learning, a community of the arts and a community which celebrates and nurtures the cultural contributions of blacks, helping all to feel good about who they are regardless of ages, incomes, abilities, religious, racial and ethnic backgrounds.

Our programs are designed to offer easy and affordable access to high quality cultural instruction and arts programming which instills pride, discipline, reflection, positive action on social issues; improves cognitive and social skills; develops talent and offers arts-related job training; encourages and promotes entrepreneurship in the arts; and, promotes harmony and appreciation of diversity within and outside the black community.

Therefore this inclusive perspective is evident in all we do: activities and classes are interdisciplinary and intergenerational; the challenges and triumphs of Africans and Africans in America are explored a reference library of books, tapes, videos, etc. is assembled and staff maintain local, regional, national and international networks .
