Are you interested in hosting an Arts for Hope or Arts for Peace camp as part of Diaspora of Hope?  Organizations are invited to request a team of BuildaBridge Artists on Call to serve in the community you serve.  Read basic guidelines below.

What a local organization says about DOH

• "The organization went well, we were able to connect easily and without much trouble."
• "The guest [Artists on Call] team easily blended and showed great respect to the [local community.] This, more than anything, made this event successful."
• "[BuildaBridge] communicated well about the expectations of the camp and that set the standards high for those who were joining for the first time ( host team) this is something that they really appreciated."
• "We were able to draw [our] group together in a unique way, the lessons that were being taught to the children also applied to [our] artist themselves, issues of discipline in time, having clear goals, valuing our community and hope within ourselves and for our community."
• "The impact was both ways, to the children and the teachers alike."

Diaspora of Hope 2009

 Transforming lives through the Creative Arts!

Calling artists, teachers, and students to participate in a Diaspora of Hope this November. Artists will work in teams to lead children and youth arts camps on the theme of Hope.

Our curriculum teaches about the will power and way power of hope through creative artmaking. US/International Teams will include 5-10 volunteers. A local team, mirroring this ratio, will also be established to serve 50-100 youth. Training is required both prior to travel and on-site with local team.
