Community Engagement

LEAP: Leadership, Excellence, Access, Persistence High school students in the LEAP program learn about social justice through storytelling in

the arts and humanities. The LEAP cohort applied their learning through a partnership with The National Opera House (NOH), which works to preserve the arts, culture and music in underserved communities. LEAP students created visual

designs that depict the organization’s story. They screen printed their designs on T-shirts, tote bags and posters at Artists Image Resource . LEAP plans to use their prints to raise funds and awareness of NOH’s importance in the Pittsburgh community.
