Dear Friends and Supporters:

🌟 Community Impact in Action

FolukéARTS is proud to serve youth and families across Cleveland’s Central Neighborhood through active programming at Marion-Sterling School and Friendly Inn Settlement. These partnerships allow us to bring consistent, high-quality arts education directly into trusted community spaces. This summer we will be expanding our partnership with Sisters of Charity Health to provide SummerARTS programming in the Central Neighborhood.

🎭 Marion-Sterling School: Creativity After the Bell

At Marion-Sterling, students participate in structured after-school programming that includes:

• Visual Arts & Creative Design
• Dance & Movement
• Music & Rhythm
• Theatre & Performance

Through these experiences, youth are:

✔ Building confidence and self-expression

✔ Developing discipline and creative problem-solving skills

🎨 Friendly Inn Settlement: A Safe Space to Grow
