<p class="MsoNormal"><b><i><span style="font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif">Trapped
in the Museum </span></i></b><span style="font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif">is an in-person, after-school
theatre program where youth will </span><span style="font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif">build
original scenes centered around what happens once everyone has left a museum. This
session is a devising workshop that provides a platform for youth to build
confidence in imaginative exploration and collaborative storytelling skills.
After creating these original pieces, the youth will learn fundamental acting
skills and apply them in a culminated in-person showcase of the young artists’
original work. CAN Academy activities improve academic skills, instill empathy
and responsibility, build character, and enhance creative thinking.<span></span></span></p>
