Our Open Studio Series, held on January 12-14, is an up close and personal glimpse at the art and ideas of young people in our fall 2009 programs. Please join us for one or all of these conversations with the young artists and program leaders. It’s a time for close observation of their amazing art and a warm celebration of support for the young artists as they work to create change in their community. Come and see their work, hear their voices, and be inspired. Each program is free and open to the public (children welcome), so please join us and bring a friend or neighbor. Refreshments provided.

A little about us
ART 180 gives young people the chance to express themselves through art, and to share their stories with others. We create and provide art-related programs to young people living in challenging circumstances, encouraging personal and community change through self-expression... read more about our mission, motivation and staff.
What’s happening
We are so excited to introduce Q, a quarterly publication that explores and articulates ART 180’s core values in your voice. Our young people, members of the community and artists have answered this first question in words and images in issue 1, and we hope that you find it engaging and eye-opening.
“Can art create change?” is the basis of the first issue, and we invite you to read and to comment, upload art and discuss your opinion on our blog. We hope you enjoy Q and that you join in the conversation with us! A donation of $100 or more towards giving young people a voice and a vehicle of self-expression, will get you all 6 issues of Q!
