Gitana Youth Perform LIVING THE DREAM for Republic Day

What a day! Youth in Gitana's Global Education through the Arts Program performed for 300 children, youth and parents who celebrated India's "Republic Day." It was a heartwarming experience to see 20 of our City youth commemorating Mohatma Gandhi and Dr. Martin Luther King's message of nonviolence to a most attentive audience  of young people. If Dr. King and Mohatma Gandhi had been in the audience they would have led the ovation
seeing African American, Ethiopian, Mexican and German youth dance and act out scenes that show how we can overcome violence in the home, at school and in the community.

It was a great performance and our kids loved the experience and opportunity to share their talents with the Indian Community. Bravo Patton, Vivian and Bob!!!
