May 11th Elementz hosted a welcome reception at our new site 1100 Race St. Guests from all over the city came out to see what the location had to offer. Along with giving tours of the new site, we also showcased performances from Kre8v and some of our new members of the S.T.A.R.S. program. Guests also had the opportunity to speak with board members and staff about our expanded mission and future plans for the center. Hopefully, with the success of the reception, Elementz’ member base will grow significantly. Thanks to everyone who came out to participate and show their support.
