REAL 2025 Cohort Graduates

Our most recent REAL (Reaching Excellence As Leaders) cohort graduated at the end of June!

During the program, youth explored various forms of creative expression through music and spoken word with Southern Word, visual arts in our Underground Art Studio, and hands-on service projects such as blanket-making with Project Linus.

REAL program coordinators led discussions in life skills and mental health. Community organizer Born Gift3d discussed emotional wellness and identity.

Outside of Oasis, the program visited TCAT, the National Museum of African American Music, and the TAP Adventure Course.
