Our Projects

We work in the community teaching our youth how to channel their passions through performing arts.

What We Do

Our organization has proudly hosted a number of events within our city and surrounding areas such as the below:

 

Opportunities Day (School Tour) - We host a youth mental heath fair & talent showcase at local Mobile County Public Schools; where we focus on community resources available to our youth. We invite organizations that focus on continuing education, mental health awareness, violence prevention, community safety, mentorship, financial literacy and much more. At each event we do invite speakers that we can introduce to the attendees who can have a positive influence on our youth. 

 

 

 

 

 

Opportunities Day

(Grand Finale Showcase) – Our Grand Finale Talent Showcase is the thrilling apex of a mission that began during the 2022-2023 school year. Opportunity 4 Entertainers and Performing Arts, in collaboration with local community partners, embarked on a journey to raise awareness about the Mental Health crisis impacting our community and its youth. Visiting ten local high schools within the Mobile County Public School system, we reached over 11,000 students. We shared crucial information on a wide range of resources, including support for mental health, STIs, AIDS, COVID-19, education opportunities, employment services, and much more. The Grand Finale Showcase, where the winners from those talent showcases take center stage in front of not just their peers but their families and the entire community. This event isn't just about entertainment; it's a chance for the whole community to come together and experience the same kind of event that our youth participated in throughout the school year.


Multiple agencies and organizations are on hand, ready to provide information about the services and resources available in our community. The Grand Finale – an event that embodies unity, empowerment, and hope for a brighter future.

 

 

 

Broadcast University

 During the summer break we host a program for youth that focuses on, technology for performing arts, fundamentals of music, future planning, entrepreneurial insights, ACT prep, tutoring and more. We take educational field trips to various locations inside the city and surrounding areas such as Montgomery and Louisiana, and have weekly guest speakers. This is a co-ed program held at a local community center in Mobile, Monday through Friday from 8:00am - 5:00pm. We have hosted up to 60 youth during this program. During the school year we also visit local schools weekly for an empowerment program at Pathway Schools and Williamson High School.

 

Alabama Hip Hop Week Community Tour

This series of community outreach events held in the month of July annually. During this time we host day and evening events. The events held during the day are geared more towards the youth in our areas and the evening events are social activities for adults.  The youth events are often held at community centers and local parks within the community in which we have educational seminars and live performances. During this time we also address challenges within our community such as gun violence, mental health awareness, financial literacy, life goals, sex education, drug abuse, conflict resolution, and community safety. The adult events are activities to address some of the same challenges and include nightlife entertainment, -live performances and networking opportunities in Mobile and the surrounding areas. The 17th annual Alabama Hip Hop week will kick off on July 15-21, 2024. 

 

 Being accessible to people and open to listening to the need in the community we serve.
