Today we want to give a 🗣️SPECIAL SHOUTOUT🗣️ to our INCREDIBLE Muskegon Teaching Artists, 🌟@geminidapoet231 and @k_mack231 🌟! These poets are some of the 💯MOST💯 dedicated and 💪HARD WORKING💪 humans we know, providing outlets for expression and opportunities for performance to young people in their community. 🔥🔥🔥
This past summer, they encouraged 20+ students in the ☄️‘Purpose Over Pain’☄️ Muskegon Summer Program to use ✨POETRY✨ as a tool to process hardship and mental health struggles. These artists have been able to use their own voices to put words to their grief and now offer young people the same opportunity!!
Because Muskegon has fewer funding opportunities and resources for this important work, a gift to our Year End Giving campaign will help support the 🤩FUTURE🤩 of programs in Muskegon’s vibrant community!
Make a gift today to 🙌CHAMPION THIS WORK🙌 at the link in our bio!!
Ya’ll we have 💪PUT IN WORK💪 to turn @the_emory.gr from a dream, to a 🙌REAL HOME🙌 for us! We’ve been 💛FUNDRAISING💛, we’ve been doing 🌟MONTHLY TOURS🌟, and we’ve been making sure that we get ALL our paperwork in order! (For an organization made up of artists and poets that’s impressive, okay!) 😅😂
