Upcoming Event

Crowns

Crowns is a powerful musical journey where hats become the storytelling lens for Black history, faith, and identity through the eyes of a young woman healing after tragedy.

Blending gospel, dance, and spoken word, the play traces cultural tradition from Africa to modern life and ends with self-acceptance and pride.

A Home for Artists, Dreamers, and Believers

At Shine by JP, we believe creativity is sacred. Through stage productions, workshops, and youth mentorship, we cultivate a space where artistry meets purpose, and where every voice, story, and gift is welcomed.
