Arts Integration, Partnership Strategy, and Community Engagement
Move the Class offers consulting services led by Dr. Kahlil Almustafa Gasper, a community-engaged spoken word poet and arts education leader with 20+ years of experience designing, facilitating, and scaling creative learning experiences across schools, cultural institutions, public agencies, and community-based organizations.
My work lives at the intersection of arts integration, youth development, community engagement, and cross-sector partnership strategy. I help teams move from big vision to practical implementation: clear plans, strong relationships, realistic budgets, and measurable outcomes.
If you’re building an arts program, strengthening a partnership ecosystem, writing a grant, or trying to align creative work with school and community priorities, I can support you with both strategy and hands-on execution.
