  • Served approximately 1000 schoolchildren through our Performance Art and Learning Program to bring free educational arts performances to 3rd & 4th grade children in the Alameda Unified School District. 
  • Created the Island Arts Concert series, which brought island arts and culture from around the world to the island of Alameda.
  • Received a National Endowment for the Arts grant to support the expansion of RCW’s Island Arts Concert Series to provide free workshops to underserved youth. RCW is one of only 162 recipients nationwide!
  • Presented Comedy, Cajun, Salsa, Accordions, Balalaika, Russian Pop, Jazz, Cuban, Tango and more live performances.
  • Launched a Sunday afternoon chamber music concert series.
  • Presented 6 exhibitions and hosted free art jams every Wednesday in the K Gallery, leading to several exhibits with a vibrant community of artists.
  • Offered a wide variety of classes including Art, Belly Dance, Capoeira, Salsa, Hoop Dance, World Percussion, Fashion Sewing, Yoga, Zumba and more.

Please help Rhythmix continue to make a difference in Alameda and beyond by making a tax-deductible donation TODAY. Donations of ANY size will be matched dollar for dollar. One hundred percent of your contributions support RCW’s mission to create a diverse community-based arts center for regional and international artists, musicians and dancers.
