Artists + Practitioners + Organizations

San Diego Urban Warriors uses theatre, art, culture, health education, and heritage to creatively develop youth, families, and community to be healthy, active, and fit, mind, body, and spirit. The organization aims to create an urban performing artist community advocating, teaching, and demonstrating collective work and responsibility, promoting health, self-determination, and discipline through creative edutainment, artistic experiences, and exploration. This community represents the performing arts and serves as an alternative means of intervention when traditional forms don't work.
