PHAME OFFERED OVER 80 LIFELONG ARTS LEARNING CLASSES TO OVER 135 INDIVIDUALS WITH INTELLECTUAL OR DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES FROM THE PORTLAND METROPOLITAN REGION AS WELL AS AROUND THE COUNTRY, INCLUDING CLASSES IN VISUAL ART, CHOIR, ANIMATION, ACTING, PODCASTING AND MANY MORE. WE ADDITIONALLY AWARDED OVER $42,400 IN TUITION ASSISTANCE TO SUPPORT THESE INDIVIDUALS IN TAKING THE CLASSES WE OFFER, AND EMPLOYED 25 TEACHING ARTISTS, CLASSROOM COORDINATORS AND CLASSROOM ASSISTANTS (WHO ARE PHAME STUDENTS). BECAUSE THE PANDEMIC DID NOT ABATE DURING THE ENTIRE FISCAL YEAR, WE HAVE CONTINUED OFFERING ALL OF OUR CLASSES ONLINE, AND HAVE NOT ONLY KEPT OUR WORKING ARTISTS EMPLOYED, BUT ALSO HAD TO HIRE NEW STAFF TO MEET OUR PROGRAM GROWTH.


THROUGHOUT THE PANDEMIC, PHAME CONTINUED TO OFFER MULTIPLE COMMUNITY GATHERING OPPORTUNITIES TO OUR STUDENTS, INCLUDING CABARETS, STUDENT DANCES AND WORKSHOPS PRESENTED BY OTHER ARTS PARTNERS. THESE GATHERINGS HAVE NOT ONLY PROVIDED CONNECTION AND ENTERTAINMENT, BUT HAVE ALSO CREATED OPPORTUNITIES FOR OUR STUDENTS TO CREATE ART OR PRACTICE SELF EXPRESSION AT HOME.


PHAME STUDENTS HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN SEVERAL VIDEO PRODUCTIONS THIS YEAR, IN ORDER TO PROVIDE PERFORMANCE OPPORTUNITIES FOR THEM, AS WELL AS OUTREACH OPPORTUNITIES FOR OUR NON-STUDENT COMMUNITY AND AUDIENCE. IN SUMMER OF 2020 WE PRODUCED 4 VIDEOS, INCLUDING AN ANIMATED SHORT FILM, A MUSIC VIDEO, AND A DANCE AND PERCUSSION COLLABORATION. WE HOSTED A VIDEO RELEASE PARTY IN SEPTEMBER OF 2020, AND HAVE BEEN ABLE TO USE THESE VIDEOS TO GROW OUR REACH AND ENGAGE MORE FRIENDS AND STUDENTS.
