Life Pieces To Masterpieces

Life Pieces To Masterpieces uses artistic expression to develop character, unlock potential, and prepare African American boys and young men to transform their lives and community.

LPTM is an arts-based after school, summer and saturday academy program that provides opportunities for our young apprentices to develop into gentlemen, scholars, artists, and athletes.

We engage our apprentices in our unique human development system that is designed to foster self growth and empowerment.Apprentices are encouraged to use our human development system, known as the LPTM Basics, to develop artistic, leadership, and social/emotional literacy.

Through our signature artistic style, the apprentices create collective art pieces that tell their life stories.

In addition to creating artwork, we engage our apprentices in various enrichment activities such as academic tutoring, drumming, yoga, chess, and public speaking.
