Since 2014, we have provided high-quality and meaningful arts programming to hundreds of incarcerated teens and wounded veterans to help them to cope, heal, and thrive.

 Our Mission

We bring the transformative power of the arts to marginalized and trauma-impacted youth and veterans to help them to self-express, gain therapeutic relief, and navigate the challenges they face from exposure to violence, neglect, and exclusion. Our programming is designed for diverse audiences to support inclusion and equity for all races, ethnicities, sexual orientations, and genders.

Art is an inherently therapeutic endeavor that requires no special skills beyond access to opportunities for arts engagement. Our program shows people how to use art-making as a tool to independently manage stress and find hope.
