Community Programs

ART 180 Community Programs bring art to young people in challenging circumstances through partnerships with elementary and middle schools and youth organizations. We offer enrichment opportunities that would otherwise not be available; they offer the support of counselors, staff, and knowledge that comes from years of experience working with the children we serve.
