Tucson Youth Collective

About me:

WE ARE NOW BOOKING!


     Skrappy’s (Tucson Youth Collective) is located at 191 E. Toole Avenue in downtown Tucson. We accommodate after school activities such as media arts, breakdancing, capoeira, cafe, silk screening, fashion designing and boutique, music distro, tutoring, civic engagement, computer projects, classes, and soon, live performances and special events in this location. Skrappy’s has started classes and is now booking for shows. After being on hiatus from having shows for over years, Skrappy's is ready to book touring bands from throughout the country of any genre. If there are any bands that would like a show in southern Arizona...

Contact Kathy at skrappys@hotmail.com or Chris at chriscoco@gmail.com for answers to your questions.

     SKRAPPY'S IS MORE THAN A PLACE FOR MUSIC - IT IS A YOUTH COMMUNITY. SKRAPPY'S IS A SAFE, POSITIVE, DRUG & ALCOHOL FREE ENVIRONMENT FOR YOUNG PEOPLE TO FREELY EXPRESS THEMSELVES THROUGH MUSIC, THEATRE, ART, JOURNALISM, DANCE AND LIFESTYLES. SKRAPPY'S ENCOURAGES YOUTH TO EMBRACE WHO THEY ARE AND HELPS THEM ACHIEVE THEIR GOALS.
     YOUNG PEOPLE INVOLVED AT SKRAPPY'S LEARN VALUABLE LIFE AND SOCIAL SKILLS. WHETHER THEY ARE HELPING RUN THE CENTER, PLAYING IN A BAND OR PARTICIPATING IN A CLASS ACTIVITY, THEY INCREASE THEIR SELF-ESTEEM, REFINE LEADERSHIP SKILLS AND STRENGTHEN THEIR SENSE OF COMMUNITY.
     SKRAPPY'S IS A BASED ON A "DO-IT-YOURSELF" EITHIC, WHERE YOUNG PEOPLE HAVE OWNERSHIP OF THE PROGRAM. IT IS A PLACE TO BE HEARD, A PLACE TO GROW, A PLACE YOUNG PEOPLE GIVE EACH OTHER THE SUPPORT, ACCEPTANCE, LOVE AND FAMILY STRUCTURE THAT MAY BE MISSING IN THEIR LIVES.
     SKRAPPY'S WAS FOUNDED IN THE MID-1990S BY A GROUP OF YOUTH AND ADULTS DEDICATED TO A DREAM OF ESTABLISHING A REGULAR VENUE FOR UNDERGROUND OR INDEPENDENT MUSIC IN TUCSON, ARIZONA. SKRAPPY'S IS THE WHITE BUILDING NEXT TO THE BLUE BUILDING LOCATED AT 191 E. TOOLE AVENUE (6TH AVENUE AND TOOLE AVE) IN DOWNTOWN TUCSON.
