"We want to give back to the neighborhood we have called home throughout this workshop process. A neighborhood rich in culture, activism, and diversity. As soon as we approached our partners, The Theater at the 14th Street Y -who are fully dedicated to creating an inclusive, and vibrant community- they jumped at the chance to help us with this initiative." Shares director Antonio Miniño.
