Art in the Community
Our collaborative community youth art projects offer San Diego youth meaningful, therapeutic arts programming that fosters self-confidence, resilience, and lasting hope.
This 7' x 4' painting was created by a group of young women enrolled in high school through the Juvenile Court and Community School S.A.F.E. program. This program supports teen mothers in earning their high school diploma while balancing work and caring for their children. The artwork is permanently displayed inside the school where the girls attend classes.
public murals
Our Veteran Mural Program provides paid internship opportunities for veterans to create murals in the San Diego community, sharing with the public the challenges they face when returning home from war.
This 4’ x 8’ mural was created by a group of post-911 combat veterans suffering from PTSD who wanted to highlight the difficulties they face going out into the public and trying to reintegrate into society after war.
