City PRIDE Launches N.W.A.
— Now Watch Arkansas
STRAIGHT OUTTA—Dumas-Desha-Da Delta
City PRIDE—"Positive Results in Dumas
Everyday" announces the first look
at the upcoming 2016 Spring Break activities for students, families and creative
enterprises in southeast Arkansas. On
March 2nd City PRIDE will launch N.W.A., Now Watch Arkansas and STRAIGHT OUTTA Dumas-Desha-Da Delta, a
week-long Spring Break Series which takes place March 19th—March 26th
but will also be an ongoing initiative promoting the talents who are looking
for— not just ‘a way outta’ the many challenges in the delta but more so ‘the
best way out.’
We often
hear the ‘talk’ and complaints regarding poverty and the limited programs and
opportunities with and for our youth and creative talents; frankly, I am not
one who talks and listens only. There is
much talent and many opportunities in Dumas, Desha and the Delta. Getting the leaders and programs that have
the skills and the resources to get on the same page is where the challenge
lies. City PRIDE aims to work with all persons and
organizations who desire to come together to build up and uplift this great
human capital in our region,” stated
Rev. A. L. Hunt, Jr., earlier.
Four
venues, including the Dumas Arts Center, the West Dumas Community Family Life Center,
HMC-Hunt Memorial Cathedral of Faith and DTEC is where programs ranging from
theatrical productions, spoken-word, creative coursework, musical celebrations,
talent competition (for cash prizes and scholarships), citywide worship
services, along with a with a major movie screening event including a new film
by Dumas filmmakers, RAW SAW. Over 100
talents from southeast Arkansas will be showcased in the series and over
$10,000 in cash prizes and scholarships will be awarded.
City
PRIDE will also introduce the CP Wristband which will be used for admission for
the spring break series but will also be used throughout the year for admission
to other events and ongoing promotions.
Currently,
City PRIDE is looking for vendor-partners including businesses, churches and
non-profit partners who will be on site at the events to promote their
programs, products and services and to sponsor the CP Wristband which allows
students and individuals to pick up complimentary wristbands from their
locations. For information on how to
sign up please call 870.623.8179 or visit www.citypridedumas.com
