With support from the California Arts Council, YBCA provided 48 Bay Area artists with a living wage, supporting them while they worked on projects in service of their communities. Each artist identified a nonprofit and issue area, and led a year-long project to inspire and uplift their communities.
Known as the Creative Corps Initiative, these artists worked within these four thematic areas:
• Civic engagement
• Climate justice
• Community health and wellness
• Social justice
From Congolese dance classes to youth-led murals, discover the intersection of art, action, and community empowerment from August 16 to September 15 at YBCA.
