With support from the California Arts Council, Chapter 510 will launch a Youth Advisory Board that will empower 10-15 students to take leadership roles in the organization’s programming and operations. Students will lead youth open mic events, oversee publishing projects, and ensure the organization is best serving Oakland’s youth.
Chapter 510 offers writing, podcasting, and bookmaking workshops to Oakland youth, led by Teaching Artists in affirming and inspiring spaces within a supportive community of volunteers and artists. We also publish our students’ words in beautifully bound and illustrated books and host events to collaborate with and elevate Oakland’s diverse community of artists and creatives.
