The Young Women's Drumming Empowerment Project (YWDEP) is a multidisciplinary, multicultural performing arts program dedicated to empowering young women in greater Washington D.C. through creative self-expression. YWDEP seeks to build young women's self esteem by offering workshops with area female artists in West African hand drumming, poetry/spoken word, song writing, team building and performance/stage techniques well as supporting a core group of women in the process of creating their own set list of original works to perform for the community at large. YWDEP seeks to sustain this mission by offering a free summer program along with school year programming for young women in area schools and youth centers. YWDEP is sponsored by One Common Unity, Inc, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
