LAMP (Live Arts Media Project) is a Detroit-based, youth-led, popular education arts and media model, which produced the Hip Hop audio documentary, Rising Up From the Ashes: Chronicles of a Drop-out. Through LAMP, youth in Detroit develop ideas for long-lasting, creative solutions to the problems in the public school system. They then use art and media to express those ideas and to incite dialogue throughout the country.
