Candace Dickens is a multi-hyphenated artist/ youth and family advocate with a specialization in arts integration as it pertains to healthy identity, community engagement and child development. Raised in under resourced communities in Baltimore City, she overcame barriers that many Baltimore City youth continue to endure. A product of the TWIGS program and graduate of the Baltimore School for the Arts (theatre C/O 2006), she participated in BSA’s first theatre ensemble to travel and perform abroad at The James Theatre in London, England. The intersectionality of her experiences and education includes an A.A. in Early Childhood Education, B.A in Communications and M.A in Arts Administration.
She is honored to return to The Baltimore School for the Arts in a leadership capacity and parent of a sophomore SDP student. This opportunity brings her journey full circle and she is eager and committed to contribute to the legacies of BSA/T.W.I.G.S.
