Project Title: Empowering Young Creatives: A Kiln-Based Art Program for School-Age Children
Project Description:

Our proposed project aims to enrich the artistic experiences of school-age children through a comprehensive art program centered around the use of a kiln. By providing access to this specialized equipment, we seek to foster creativity, skill development, and self-expression among participants, while also promoting community engagement and appreciation for the arts.

Program Overview:
The art program will consist of a series of hands-on workshops and activities conducted over the course of several months, culminating in a final showcase of participants’ work. The program will be open to children aged 8-19 from diverse backgrounds and skill levels, ensuring inclusivity and accessibility for all.

Kiln Firing Workshops: Participants will learn about the kiln firing process, including loading, firing, and unloading kiln shelves. They will have the opportunity to experiment with various firing techniques, such as bisque firing, glaze firing, and Raku firing, under the guidance of experienced instructors.
Ceramic Arts Exploration: Children will explore different techniques and methods of working with clay, including hand-building, wheel-throwing, and sculpting. They will create their own unique ceramic pieces, which will be fired in the kiln to bring their visions to life.

Final Showcase: The program will culminate in a public showcase event where participants will exhibit their artwork to the community. This celebratory event will recognize the children’s creativity and accomplishments, while also raising awareness of the importance of arts education and creative expression.

A kiln-based art program for school-age children offers a unique opportunity to ignite creativity, foster collaboration, and inspire a lifelong love of the arts. By providing access to a kiln and empowering children to explore their creative potential, we aim to make a lasting impact on the lives of participants and enrich our community through the power of art.

Project Title: Coco Scholars
Project Description:

In the heart of Coco lies a profound commitment to uplifting Black college women, inspired by the founders’ parents’ passions. Since 2020, the Coco Scholar Program has offered 3-5 scholarships annually. Now, aiming to broaden its impact, we seek to increase either the amount or quantity of awards granted each year.

The program’s objectives are clear: empower Black college women by providing financial assistance and resources, foster excellence in Health, Civic Engagement, and the Arts, and cultivate leadership skills. It addresses systemic barriers to ensure equitable access to education and professional opportunities.

Operating within three categories – Health, Civic Engagement, and the Arts – the program invites applications from Black college women enrolled in accredited institutions. Recipients receive personalized mentorship, networking opportunities, and ongoing support. A dedicated committee selects scholars based on merit and alignment with program objectives.

The Coco Scholar Program is more than financial aid; it’s a catalyst for change. By nurturing the dreams of Black college women, it fosters a community of leaders and changemakers. It is a beacon of hope, reminding us that no dream is too big when fueled by passion and purpose. Through its unwavering commitment, Coco paves the way for a brighter, more equitable future.
