Soul of the City 2010 
Soul of the City 2010

During the D.C. public school spring break (March 29 - April 2, 2010), Soul of the City participants will take an incredible journey into the lives and experiences of
three immigrant communities in Washington D.C., and will use what they find to develop
a performance about the city's immigrant life.  Through the program, you will get an
opportunity to learn more about the city, develop skills in the performing arts,
gain leadership skills, and create your own performances.
 
The application deadline has been extended until March 15, 2010.
