J.U.I.C.E. provides the facilities, equipment, and training necessary for young people to develop and expand skills in bboying/bgirling (breakdancing), mural and graffiti art, deejaying, and emceeing – known as the four elements of hip-hop – as well as in music recording, beat-making and producing.
Our mission is to address the root causes of juvenile crime and of youth need for belonging by providing a safe center run by and for young people, focused on skill building in the arts of the hip-hop culture.
