INNER CITY MUSIC SCHOOL

In an effort to stimulate the development of new talent among Detroits under privileged youth Rev. Timothy T. Hicks who manages the Rappa House, one of the nicest places in the city to hear blues and jazz after hours (see photo story), has set up The Development and Promotions Inc., a non-profit school and workshop in the Arts. Most of their programs have already begun to show fruit though much work is still needed to make it a truly successful experiment. What follows is the program of The Development and Promotions Inc. as they have written it up. Workshops such as this one can be important centers for people to ;learn and create in without being forced to compromise so please give this letter your fullest attention.

Through the poverty program much is being done for the underprivileged to help them improve their economic status and general living conditions. We feel that there is still another area of life which is just as important to become exposed to. However, there should be more money allotted for it. We are speaking of cultural enrichment, specifically music and drama.
