About this organization
Mission
SkyART provides free, safe, open spaces where young people are empowered and new connections are made. Accessibility – we remove barriers – promoting participation in our programs, connection with other institutions and communities, and access to the broader world. Responsiveness – we innovate – adapting programs to the evolving context within which we work, fostering civic engagement, cultural democracy and social well-being. Totality – we are committed to reaching the whole person – recognizing that every participant has a unique life experience characterized by their own needs, assets and interests. Stability – we are a consistent presence – the 'third place' after home and school, where participants develop meaningful relationships and experience a feeling of extended family.
About
Out-of-school programs - take place at the organization's studios in South Chicago. The studios are open five days a week, and programs are defined by a new and innovative approach called 'Skyway', which shift in perspective, away from 'art education and toward art making as an inherently educational experience. These programs also take place at facilities that are coordinated by partnering community organizations and range from one day workshops to multi-week art courses. These programs reach 2,200+ youth.
