Desiree Stevens here, Director of Heavens Rose Productions and Creator of Camp Tarabu!
@camptarabu and I'm launching a birthday #fundraiser to actualize my passion project!
"Tarabu", is a Swahilli-Arabic fusion word which means joy, music and performance.
The idea of Camp Tarabu was birthed in me my senior year
@chicostate . After earning my BA in sociology, I started teaching at the
@ywcausa , where the seeds were planted.
Soon after, I began hosting beauty salons for formerly incarcerated folks and singing workshops for young kids in marginalized communities via
@blackandpinkorg &
@girlsrockdc , respectively.
In seeking support for
@camptarabu via the community nurtured at
@artsarea is how I came to know my familia at
@musicchanginglives , the community via
@downtown_hemet_farmers_market y mas!
Camp Tarabu was established to provide performance opportunities, songwriting and performance workshops, jam sessions, drum circles, karaoke curation, and other joyful music and creatives opportunities for the community with the mission of:
1) Enhancing and unearthing participants' creativity
2) Empowering participants through music and arts programming
3) Boosting feelings of self-love and self-esteem
To help launch Camp Tarabu, and to celebrate our Directors birthday (June 30th!) we are FUNDRAISING to facilitate our efforts!
