As children, we all create art. We sing and dance together, we build sand castles, we make up stories and draw landscapes on the walls of our room. then somehow, life teaches us to become serious, get a 'real' profession and stop 'playing around', and links to our inner artist get broken. At Paracademia, we keep those links alive and awake them if they fall asleep. Paracademia is committed to nurturing and revitalizing our inner artists through the community efforts in education, collaborative productions and performances. We particularly support immigrants, especially women.
