Project BrOKen: A Journey into Mental Health and Healing Through Dance and Art

What an unforgettable evening at Plainfield High School! 💙

iDanceMinistry Ministry, led by the incredible Maria Daniel, brought Project BrOKen to our community — an evocative and immersive journey using dance as a lens to explore mental health, addiction, and healing. The performances were nothing short of captivating, and the vulnerability and authenticity on that stage reminded us all why this work matters.

To everyone who came out and showed up for this important conversation — thank you. And to the performers and artists of iDance Ministry who poured their hearts into this work — thank you for trusting our community with something so powerful.

PPAC was honored to help bring this event to Plainfield free of charge, because we believe healing through art shouldn't have a price tag. This is exactly the kind of programming we're proud to support — work that uses arts and culture to start conversations our community needs to have.

Mental health matters. Thank you, iDance Ministry, for leading the way. 🎭✨

✨ What a beautiful Mother's Day! ✨
Last month, moms and daughters came together at PPAC for our Wicked Screen & Mother's Day celebration — an afternoon of nail painting, coaster crafting, refreshments, and a whole lot of love.
From the nail station to the big screen, it was a night full of joy, creativity, and connection. We loved seeing every generation come together to celebrate the incredible women in our community. 💚🩷
Thank you to everyone who came out and made it so special — and a huge thank you to our partners at Ms. Full-Figured New Jersey for helping us make this event shine!
Stay tuned for more events coming to PPAC this summer. 🎬✨
