Since 1991, we’ve held arts workshops with young people coping with challenging circumstances such as homelessness and the juvenile justice system.
Art Start uses the creative process to nurture the voices, hearts, and minds of historically marginalized youth. We offer a space for them to imagine, believe, and represent their creative vision for their lives and communities.
