SERVICES FOR THE COMMUNITY

Through the production and exhibition of art works or performance activities and events, participants can step into the role of artist. Art making has a positive effect on an individuals self-esteem and more importantly, life outcomes for youth and adults alike. From those who discover a new talent, to those who discover a creative approach to problem solving, [the arts] affect lives in a positive way. Young people are given a positive outlet for their emotions. Working artists as positive role models, provide support and multiple views of creative inspiration, ideas and outcomes.  Through our programs we work to effect positive change.
