Girls Create is a summer camp series that empowers young women, ages 12-16, to become future artistic leaders. Girls explore art forms including playwriting, comedy, fashion design, and self-expression through art. Professionals teach, guest artists share their expertise, and mentors from the community guide and encourage empowering girls to lead and to effect change in themselves and others through creative learning. Each week-long session culminates with a performance or exhibit of the participants work with friends, family, and the public. Artfully Minded Workshops seek to encourage girls and nonbinary youth to tap into their creativity, gain confidence, and do what they love in the arts. These workshops, offered periodically, are in partnership with local nonprofits serving youth. Various art forms include: visual, dance, theatre, and spoken word.

Read & Rant is Athena Projects monthly book club exploring plays written primarily by women and underrepresented genders. Led by an experienced dramaturg, we read two scripts each month and meet every third Monday online via Zoom. We explore brand new works with playwrights in the room and we discuss what makes a good script, how it affects us, and how it links to the larger world.
