Transformative Learning Through Hands-On Experiences in the Visual Arts
IAS is committed to providing young artists and families from all neighborhoods and backgrounds with transformative experiences in the visual arts.
Art experiences provide opportunities for children and youth to develop crucial social, emotional, and cognitive skills, including collaboration and imaginative problem solving.
“The arts empower… give a voice to the voiceless… (and) help transform communities… the result can be a better child, a better town, a better nation and certainly a better world”
