A recent article in the AJC looks at Moving in the Spirit, a nonprofit after-school program that uses dance and movement to teach leadership and development skills. Moving in the Spirit recently was named one of 17 outstanding youth and humanities programs by the President's Committee on the Arts and Humanities. It was the first program in the Southeast to receive the national honor, which came with a $10,000 award. The article says, "The Grant Park/East Atlanta program instructs about 225 students ages 3-18 in various forms of dance. More than 1,250 students have participated in the program since its inception in 1986."
