Music & Arts School - Itu, Brazil

<h2>Music &amp; Arts School - Itu, Brazil</h2><h3>Empowering the next generation through Music and Arts in Brazil </h3>In Brazil, the Tomorrowland Foundation collaborates with the Tecendo Infâncias Institute and Associação Arracê. These independent organizations support children and youngster in underserved communities spanning from Itu, the hometown of Tomorrowland Brasil, to São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. The Foundation supports initiatives that foster creativity and bolster self-esteem among children, providing them with opportunities for personal expression and growth. <h3>A new chapter: Music &amp; Arts School in Itu </h3>In collaboration with the Tecendo Infâncias Institute and the Municipality of Itu, the Tomorrowland Foundation has opened a new Music &amp; Arts School for children and young people in Itu, São Paulo. Mayor improvements to the main building have been made to build an engaging and creative learning environment for over 4,000 children, offering opportunities for self-expression through music and the arts. In addition to specialized music and arts facilities, the school now features a modern playground and sports court. Building upon the success of the established Music and Arts schools in Nepal and India, this project reaffirms the commitment to give children worldwide the opportunity to attend music &amp; art classes and unlock their talents. As a longstanding tradition, the Tomorrowland Foundation invited famous artists to celebrate the opening of its brand-new Music and Arts school in Itu. Following Alan Walker&#039;s inspiring visit to the Music and Arts School in India a few days ago, renowned DJs Amber Broos, Carola, MANDY and Zerb joined the opening, inspiring local youngsters. Carola: “Music transformed my life. I came from a family with no financial resources, and I participated in some social projects in my childhood that were very similar to this one, back in Porto Alegre. This kept me away from the streets, away from crime and things that could have led me down a completely different path than the life I live today. And I believe that the importance of music, art, and culture was, in fact, to change my reality. Maybe if I hadn&#039;t had this when I was younger, I wouldn&#039;t have had the opportunity to travel the world, doing what I do and playing at Tomorrowland.”

Support for local communities

<h3>Expanding opportunities for local communities </h3>The integration of children and young people into education and the arts is the focus of the Tomorrowland Foundation. And, as with any collective action, it recognizes that allies are essential. New instruments and educational materials have been provided to EMIA (Escola Municipal de Iniciação Artística) and extra teachers got hired at C.E.L. (Centro de Experimentação em Linguagens). Both organizations are based in the center of Itu. Thanks to this support, even more children and youngsters from the local communities will be able to attend workshops and lessons on dance, theater and music.  The Movimento Comunitário Estrela Nova believes that a sense of community transforms the lives of the more than 900 students it supports. In addition to bringing the culture of electronic music to the Campo Limpo region in São Paulo, it also connects them with sports like capoeira. Meanwhile, in the Pirituba region, the Projeto Amigos da Comunidade understands that opportunities shape the social development of children and young people. Classes in IT, English, and dance nurture the hope of brighter futures. But for these partnerships to take shape, the Tomorrowland Foundation relied on crucial support: the donation of proceeds from social tickets for Tomorrowland Brasil 2023 &amp; 2024. On behalf of all the young people impacted, thank you, People of Tomorrow! Together, we are building new stories. Live Today. Love Tomorrow. Unite Forever.
