Combined Mission Statement
(Attend Our June 18 & 19 Fundraiser "Share Our Stage 2010" - Event Info & Tickets)

Break The Silence! Foundation (BTS), Brookline Community Center for the Arts, Genuine Voices, Boston Music Conference (BMC), Boston Music Coalition (BMC), and Diane Purdy's Children's Theatre Workshop (CTW), are working together to establish a new arts facility under one roof for a common goal as the Greater Boston Community Center for the Arts (BCCA).

This will provide positive options to inner city children and adults who will learn how to use their abilities and cultivate their talents with programs including music, film-making, visual arts, acting, world dance forms, martial arts, fitness, and art appreciation. Our collaboration with community outreach organizations will extend our ability to make a difference in the community by providing young people a safe place to learn and grow. Through guidance and positive reinforcement, we will support their needs to rise above challenges by utilizing creative outlets to express themselves in productive ways.

The Center will provide arts education, practice and performance facilities, instructor training and new teaching opportunities for artists and students. We will host community events and provide performance opportunities for emerging artists to showcase their progress and collaborate with established artists as role models.

Through the use of multimedia, telecommunication, and Internet technology, we will promote the pursuit of thriving careers and contribute to the creation of an extended network of artists and institutions in all different social and economic communities locally, nationally, and internationally.
