Presenting: Urban Eyes; Fuel for the Arts, a Greenmount Block Party

When: August 15, 2009 2pm-7pm

Where: 24th and Greenmount Ave. in Mund Park

Why: Young people in Baltimore's neglected communities ARE living the most powerful and productive period of their lives and are in need of a venue for a voice. We aim to strengthen the relationship between developing artists and established artists through a day of informal mentor ship and networking. Through the alliance of several grassroots organizations, we plan to act in support of community pride and empowerment.

United Sisters has partnered with Steady Baltimore to establish an urban arts and youth mentoring center in the Greenmount community. The attaining of the necessary donations and volunteer base will be an ongoing objective, and this will serve as an awareness-of-the-cause event and fundraiser.
