Opening Act Artistic Advisory Board member Aja Naomi King shared her joyful experience mentoring an Opening Act student with Shape Magazine.

For two years, I’ve mentored a young woman through Opening Act. The group works with schools that have a low graduation rate and gives kids a safe space in which they can play, create, and communicate their feelings. Opening Act has given my mentee confidence, and I’m so happy to be a part of that.

Thank you Aja and all of our Artistic Advisory Board for your incredible support!
