Leaders of Tomorrow Youth Center (LTYC) supports youths, ages 5-18, in the state of Maryland and DC with arts programs that empower them to excel in the arts, academics, and social development. By providing opportunities and resources that otherwise would not be available, LTYC programs build higher self-esteem and self-worth in young people who are yearning for success.
LTYC is guided by its unique set of core values. These core values support our mission, and they shape and identify the culture and character of our organization:
• Building Relationships

By providing quality professional arts programs to the community, the Weinberg Center for the Arts strives to entice, enliven, educate, and enchant patrons of all ages, abilities and interests.

The Motor House building started out literally as that, a storefront selling a horseless vehicle that would transform the early 20th century. Fast-forward to our present century and the building, called “Load of Fun,” was home to artist studios and performance spaces.

Theater experiences can be life-changing. Through free outreach and education programs, the Hippodrome Foundation works to introduce Maryland students and community members to the arts and all of the assets of the France-Merrick Performing Arts Center. By exposing young people to new possibilities, we are raising the curtain on opportunity.
The museum is a catalyst for community building by allowing opportunities for community-driven creative engagement in a range of cultural arts. We provide the environment and inspiration for artists and community members to create and host events, performances, activities, and exhibits that engage, stimulate, and bring people together.
