Highbridge Voices
Highbridge Voices is an after-school music and academic program which seeks to inspire excellence in our students through the example of excellence in our programs and staff, working in collaboration with families and the community.
Bronx Children's Museum
Founded in 2005, Bronx Children’s Museum (BxCM or Museum) is a new kind of multicultural, Bronx- inspired children’s museum operating “with and without walls” geared to those from infancy through fourth grade.
The Bronx is almost the size of Philadelphia, has 190,000 children under the age of nine, and is the only borough in New York City without an educational and cultural facility geared solely to young children and their caregivers. To complement existing outreach programs and provide the Bronx’s children with an interactive place to learn and play, BxCM, with the City, is near completion of the development of 13,000 square feet of space in a City-owned former powerhouse in the South Bronx. After weathering construction and COVID-related delays, the building’s grand opening is anticipated in July 2022.
People’s Theatre Project (PTP)
Rooted in Washington Heights and Inwood, People’s Theatre Project (PTP) makes theatre with and for immigrant communities to build a more just and equitable world. Now in its 14th anniversary season, PTP is Manhattan’s largest performing arts organization north of Harlem. Through ensemble-based, multilingual and multigenerational programming, PTP’s unique brand of theatre is a powerful artistic platform for immigrants and members of the Latine, Black, and Queer communities.
