All proceeds from the event will go directly to MAPA – Music & Art Peace Academy, the organization’s official program that will travel to Latin America this summer. MAPA’s goal is to provide resources and experiences to talented individuals around the world, and it invites musicians, producers, artists, photographers, designers, writers, actors, and videographers to voyage on the Peace Boat.

This summer, New York city youth will make the journey to El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Panama on the Peace Boat during August. They will participate in the creation of a documentary and soundtrack about their perspective on the Embera Quera Indigenous Community in Panama, which will be shown this September during the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues.
