Blackboard Community

the south african creative sector will be more impactful if it taps into the strengths of a racially diverse pool. so how do we get there? the issue starts in high school. most township students don't consider creativity as a career path, simply because they don't know it exists. blackboard wants to expose students in disadvantaged high schools to the world of creativity. we can make this happen, one student at a time. since 2017, we have exposed over 60 underprivileged kids to the world of creativity. we currently operate out of gugulethu with workshops twice a month and we’re looking to expand to two more locations in 2021.
