WHAT IS MAP

At MAP we believe young people deserve the opportunity to imagine strong futures. Since our founding in 2004, we’ve provided tuition-free out-of-school time playwriting programs for youth, and professionally produced over 750 plays written by young people in Providence’s Olneyville neighborhood (with the help of over 500 volunteer artists), with the goal of giving young people tools to become tomorrow’s creative thinkers and community leaders.

WE'D LOVE YOUR SUPPORT

We wouldn’t be able to do any of this without people who genuinely care about our kids. That includes families, businesses, non-profits, and other sponsors. We invite you to be a part of our support system.
