As we wrap up a POWERFUL summer, we have to thank the team who made it possible! Our teaching artists and volunteers worked with over 300 students between 3 and 18 years old from all over the St. Louis region! The arts were put into action to promote healing, expression, learning, and justice. Relationships were built and skills were developed. Thanks to our teaching artists, volunteers, and partners! THIS is what community looks like. We are excited and invigorating for the school year!
Our mission is to empower people to become the highly creative, literate, passionate, independent thinkers they are capable of becoming. Our vision of St. Louis is a diverse, just, and vibrant community of creative opportunities and empowered servants. We live out that vision and make that impact in three ways:
  • We walk through life and have built meaningful relationships with a particular group of young people living in the most underserved part of St. Louis. Our scholars and their community present both the greatest potential and the greatest need. We don’t see any other way that we were connected to these image-bearers than by divine will and providence.
  • We partner with other organizations that serve youth all over St. Louis. Through those partnerships, we are taking the arts and our teaching artists to every corner of the St. Louis region and also creating a non-giving revenue stream which is funneled into the mission with our scholars.
  • We partner with churches who have provided us with space and leadership as we grow. Those churches are then challenged to accept the opportunity to invest directly into our team which has been impacting lives all over the St. Louis region.
Do you share that vision? Then join our mission. There is a role for everyone in this work. Whether you are called to invest your time or finances, there is much work to be done. We are always looking to add new team members in the roles of donors, tutors, mentors, teaching artists, staff members, and Board members. We look forward to hearing from you!
