The Creative Advantage Facebook page has been highlighting our amazing roster of Community Arts Partners for Arts Education Week. One of the partners highlighted is Extraordinary Futures.

EFDonateToday1Founded by members of Seattle’s own world champ breakdance crew Massive Monkees, Extraordinary Futures is an innovative non-profit organization that has “created the nation’s first dance-based leadership program focused on urban youth with limited access to arts education and quality mentorship. Their fun, unique, and engaging arts based programs empower urban youth to lead healthier lifestyles and to realize their full potential as leaders. With nearly a decade of experience mentoring youth as teaching artists, the Extraordinary Futures team brings a unique formula for using art to develop leadership capacity in urban youth.”
