ABOUT THE PROGRAM

In honor of the 350th celebration, LPCCD re-launched our humanities program Music Speaks, the free interactive lecture, music and multimedia arts series, is designed to increase Newark citizens' appreciation for literature, art, photography, music, and dance. Leveraging the arts. LPCCD is also abe to educate, inform and empower the community as well as celebrate it. Under the Music Speaks: Rock the Shot events, we addressed the use of technology in art - specifically digital photography - to engage, empower and give a voice to youth and adults in Newark, NJ. Music Speaks: Rock the Shot was activated in three wards - South ward, North ward and Central ward during Saturdays in July 2016. Then, the student photographers obtained field experience at the highly attended Lincoln Park Music Festival weekend, July 29th - 31st 2016 and Halsey Street Festival, September 8th, 2016.
