SAY Sí is a year-round, long term multidisciplinary creative youth development program that provides students opportunities to develop artistic and social skills in preparation for higher educational advancement and professional careers.

In the past 23 years, 100% of SAY Sí’s students have graduated from high school and 98% have gone on to college; most are first-generation college students. What’s in their secret sauce? Come and learn from its founding director and alumni who have been part of the program.
