Just Like Me
Just Like Me is celebrating its 10th anniversary with a free performance at the Florida Theatre. The organization was founded to help foster children on the verge of aging out by teaching them the arts as a way to engage in self expression. The performance, which is a showcase for the students' work, is July 29 at the Florida Theatre in Downtown Jacksonville at 6:30 p.m.
Kathryn McAvoy, the founder and executive director of The Performers Academy, which hosts and runs the Just Like Me program, joined us.
