About Mosaic
The Mosaic Training Program was created by Tony Award-Winner Karen “KO” Olivo specifically for Project Broadway. This multi-week virtual program offers high school-aged BiPOC performers the chance to train with the top performers and teachers working in New York and beyond. When a student is accepted to Mosaic, they do not pay a nickel for the training the receive.
Land Acknowledgement
One practice and encouragement that was so amazing during the Mosaic program was to consistently acknowledge the people who have occupied and toiled the land we get to perform art on ages ago. We have looked up the specific tribe that inhabited the land where we appear tonight, and gratefully acknowledge the Munsee Lenape people.
Land acknowledgment is only one small part of supporting Indigenous communities. We hope our land acknowledgment statement will inspire others to stand with us in solidarity with Native nations.
Special Thanks
Thank you to every single person involved in making tonight happen. Special thanks to (in no particular order): Erica Koenig, Mido Francois, Sheri Feigen, Lisa Lalonde, Ashley Lalonde, Jennifer Sipkin, James Donegan, Lauren McGrail, Grace Smyth, Yvette Kojic, Sarah Glugath, Tabitha Matthews, KO, Ripley Grier Studios, Sony Hall, Julianna “JuJu” Jaworski, Margaret Lee, Eugene M.
