Group Centered Leadership in the Arts supports artists in achieving their economic goals in an inclusive environment. Group Centered Leadership is an organizing model
that encourages individual growth and empowerment as a way to affect positive social change.
Women with children, head of households and emerging artist are a diverse representation of the public. By focusing on this portion of our population, it
inherently creates an inclusive environment of intergenerational and cross cultural expression. Familial responsibilities, career support and limited access to a support network,create barriers in artists lives. We identify all participants of our programs
as artists.
Artists will create a culminating project!
“The most common way people give up their power, is by thinking they don’t have any.”
