The Apollo announces the launch of Apollo Stories, an interactive digital learning hub that aims to connect students and educators across the country with the programs and legacy of the famed Apollo, providing lesson plans, resources and activities that explore themes of social justice, cultural exchange, identity and more.
The inaugural lessons are built around The Apollo’s world premiere stage adaptation of Ta Nehisi-Coates’ Between the World and Me.
Following Between the World and Me, Apollo Stories will release lessons centered on the new musical work The Renaissance Mixtape, a collaboration between the nonprofit and music and multimedia group Soul Science Lab. New projects will be added on a rolling basis. The Apollo Stories project is led by The Apollo Education Department, Arts Educator Benton Greene and Apollo arts consultant James Kass. The initiative is supported by JPMorgan Chase and the Ella Fitzgerald Foundation, along with a handful of community partners including: The Kennedy Center, The Black Teacher Project, National Equity Project, The XQ Institute, Bright Research Group, and Youth Speaks/ Brave New Voices.
