The group ranges from ages 14-18, and are all young adults from foreign backgrounds who\u00a0have lived the majority of their lives elsewhere (13+ languages). This series included artistic exercises guided by founders of R.E.C Arts Reykjav\u00edk and guest instructors from their collective. Using communal discussions and different formats of storytelling (theatre, music, dance, writing, etc), a space was created to freely express their\u00a0voices, concerns, and opinions on\u00a0their experiences in\u00a0Icelandic society and the world at large. The main themes worked with were: Identity, Community and Empowerment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\">The group has created a multi-genre showcase\/variety show and exhibition called &#8220;Community Milkshake&#8221;, which plays upon these themes, shares their individual\u00a0artistic voices, and hopes to educate others about the important cultural changes currently happening in Icelandic society today.<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\"><em><strong>Everyone is welcome to attend, free admission.<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\"><a title=\"http:\/\/www.instagram.com\/recartsrvk\" contenteditable=\"false\" href=\"http:\/\/www.instagram.com\/recartsrvk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.instagram.com\/recartsrvk<\/a><u><\/u><u><\/u><\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\"><a title=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/recartsrvk\" contenteditable=\"false\" href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/recartsrvk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.facebook.com\/recartsrvk<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\"><em><strong><br \/>\nACCESSIBILITY:<br \/>\nThe auditorium and bathrooms are wheelchair accessible.
