MISSION AND VALUES
Our Vision
To provide youth ages 13-24 yrs old with a unique professional edge by offering opportunities for career exploration, global education, emotional literacy, entertainment, fashion, technology, and social justice. As our students explore and expand their cultural worldviews, they develop an increased awareness around social systems in both national and global sphere.
We're a collaborative organization focused on building human equity through technology, mentorship, and art. Cultivating a new generation of art enthusiasts, we provide programming, resources, digital exhibition space for teens, career pathways, social and emotional learning, mindfulness, technology, and arts.
