I know that Kalamazoo positions itself as inclusive, diverse, etc. but what would it be without a stellar organization like Fire Historical and Cultural Arts Collaborative.
Fire is a 501(c)3 organization that has as our mission to encourage and respond to people’s desire for authentic expression.We believe that social and cultural awareness generates and sustains social justice. We design our youth development programming to help youth and young adults cultivate the leadership, self-discipline, self-confidence and self-esteem necessary to lead positive and productive lives. We understand that education and participation in the arts and culture contributes to the healthy development of young people, their families and communities.
Fire has been a guiding force for young, emerging talent in Kalamazoo, MI. It’s a safe and open space for people of any demographic. Fire is a staple organization, a premier organization for arts, culture, and history in Kalamazoo, and it needs your investment. Be cool, invest in Fire!
