Creative Art Works (formerly Creative Arts Workshops for Kids)

New York, New York, 10018-8910 United States

Mission Statement

Creative Art Works is a 37-year-old nonprofit that empowers young people through the visual and multimedia arts. Our programs equip children, teens and young adults with essential tools and skills; connect them with community, academic success and career opportunities; and inspire them to reach for new possibilities.

About This Cause

Working in under-served neighborhoods of NYC, we provide in-school and out-of-school time classes, public art youth employment programs, and community art-making events, in partnership with public schools, recreation and cultural centers, juvenile justice settings and foster care facilities, parks, and libraries. Our programs build confidence, unlock a love of learning, and teach valuable technical and social-emotional skills while creating profound connections between our young constituents, their art and their communities. Students are never charged for participation, and Youth Apprentices earn wages.
