THE WHY
Around the county many communities and individuals struggle to find the balance between surviving and living. North Waveland looks to strengthen bonds and create memories that will last a lifetime by providing access to low-income households with the opportunity to attend cultural enrichment events through the Arts.
Our approach is in response to the limited to nil options available for individuals that can’t afford regular price or budget tickets. With the growing costs for admission, associated fees, taxes, etc. – in addition to transportation costs, access to cultural events are becoming more and more out of the reach for many.
Through our meaningful experiences we look to spark an interest in the Arts, enhance each individual’s potential, ignite a passion that will contribute to their educational achievements and personal fulfillment.
THE HOW
Through a collaboration with North Waveland artists and ours partners we can provide cultural access to youth and families in need at no cost. We believe that the Arts in all forms is a key driver of enrichment and equity that’s the foundation of family bonds. Programs like Kid Tix look to encourage and strengthen these bonds through memories that last generations.
