Join us on Friday, March 9th at 7:00 pm at Rhizome Cafe to celebrate the release of Hip Hop Hope's latest CD! All songs on the album were written and performed by youth, with guidance from Power of Hope's talented artist mentors and Ray Cam Community Centre's Media Lab.

The Power of Hope is a youth empowerment organization that unleashes the positive potential of youth through arts-centered intergenerational and multicultural learning programs that value self-awareness, leadership, community and social change.

Using portable digital studios, youth record beats, songs, raps and poems, most of which are created during Hip Hop Hope. Hip Hop Hope provides an enriching and empowering learning community for youth to express themselves using a musical genre at the core of youth culture. Youth also get to explore issues of media literacy and the controversies surrounding Hip Hop culture before they step behind the mic to say what they think is important and what they think needs to be heard.
