#beYOUthful

Youth empowerment is important to innovation because it allows young people to actively participate in shaping the future and driving change. When young people are empowered, they have the opportunity to develop the skills, knowledge, and confidence they need to identify and address problems in their communities, and to propose and implement innovative solutions.

Our Mission

The Dojo @ Somernova is a place and platform where community, culture and industry intersect. A youth-driven multi-generational community space connecting people of all ages, backgrounds through immersive learning, cultural experiences and fun. Somernova is committed to empowering young people with the resources and tools they need to thrive. 

Whatever you do, whoever you are, we invite you to join us to co-create and test the boundaries of what is possible. Together, we can co-design a more equitable future for our youth, our planet, and for Somerville.
