CITYWIDE POETS TO RECEIVE COMING UP TALLER AWARD IN WASHINGTON, D.C.
(WASHINGTON, D.C.) Citywide Poets, a Detroit, Mich. after-school program that integrates the values of reading, writing and performing, is being nationally recognized as one of 15 youth arts and humanities programs to receive the prestigious 2009 C...oming Up Taller Award. Youth and adult representatives of the program will travel to Washington, D.C., for a ceremony on November 4 at 2:30 p.m., where they will accept the award.
Coming Up Taller is a national initiative that recognizes and supports outstanding out-of-school and after-school arts and humanities programs for children, especially those with great potential, but limited outlets for creative expression. A project of the President’s Committee on the Arts and the Humanities (PCAH), in partnership with the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA), the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), and the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), the Coming Up Taller Awards honor programs that offer exceptional learning experiences in the arts and the humanities and that have a tangible effect on the lives of young people as evidenced through improved academic scores, enhanced life skills, and positive relationships with peers and adults.
InsideOut Literary Arts Project engages more than 6,000 Detroit children in the pleasure and power of reading and writing. They place professional writers in schools to help students develop their self-expression and give them the opportunities to publish and perform their work on stage and on recorded poetry CDs. Citywide Poets is Inside Out's award-winning after-school workshop for high school poets that meet once a week, at three sites around the city, to improve writing and performing abilities. Citywide students have led or helped facilitate writing workshops for other young writers and have performed at venues across the country. They are funded in part by a grant from the Skillman Foundation and over 95 percent of alumni go on to college.
“I am absolutely thrilled that our Citywide Poets are receiving the Coming Up Taller Award and the national recognition that accompanies this honor,” says Inside Out founder and poet, Dr.Terry Blackhawk. “Citywide Poets is the tip of the iceberg, or the cherry on the sundae of Inside Out’s programming. The good news about Detroit's young people so often gets lost in stories of our sad economy and political disarray, but our youth are full of courage, ingenuity and passion. Their poems rise from -- and soar above -- the prevailing landscape and inspire us all.”
“I am so pleased to hear that Citywide Poets are being nationally recognized for their important work, which has helped to foster a love of reading and writing in so many Detroit Public Schools’ students,” said Robert Bobb, Detroit Public Schools’ Emergency Financial Manager.
“This year's Coming Up Taller Awardees exemplify how arts and humanities programs outside of the school setting can impact on the lives of our young people,” says Margo Lion, co-chairman, President's Committee on the Arts and the Humanities. “By exciting imaginations and providing opportunities for self-expression through the disciplines of theater, dance, music and literature these exceptional projects offer their participants windows on possibility and a belief in a more positive future.”
The President’s Committee on the Arts and the Humanities bridges the interests of federal agencies and the private sector, supports special projects that increase participation, and helps incorporate the humanities and the arts into White House objectives. The National Endowment for the Arts is a public agency dedicated to supporting excellence in the arts, both new and established; bringing the arts to all Americans; and providing leadership in arts education. Because democracy demands wisdom, the National Endowment for the Humanities serves and strengthens our Republic by promoting excellence in the humanities and conveying the lessons of history to all Americans. The Institute of Museum and Library Services is an independent federal grant making agency dedicated to creating and sustaining a nation of learners. Read More
