ART IS HAPPENING HERE!
Barrio Alegria is a community engagement organization that utilizes the arts to create transformations in individuals to help them transform their communities.
This means that we utilize the arts to build, empower, and strengthen communities through individuals. We dance, we act, and we paint, but most importantly we care about the stories of those that are helping create safe spaces for vulnerable community members.
ART IS HAPPENING NOW!
From the second floor of our center to the grassy land of the Reading Iron Playground, there is always a seat waiting for you!
Please explore what we have to offer!
Barrio does civic and social engagement of our community through the arts, empowering and building future leadership."
Do I need to
have experience
taking pictures?
No! You will receive a 2 hour
workshop with an experienced
photographer who will teach you the basics.
Do I need a
camera to
join OJOS?
It is not necessary for you to have your own camera. Barrio has community cameras that we can loan you.
Will my photographs be in a show?
Yes. The second part of the project involves the setup of a photography show at a local community venue.
Tell our coordinator if you want to get involved in the setup!
