PAINTING A BRIGHTER FUTURE!

Every year, Creative Art Works’ Public Art Youth Employment programs give NYC teens and young adults full-time summer jobs and part-time jobs after school creating large-scale public art. Youth Apprentices are guided by professional teaching artists from the initial concept development, through the client presentation, to the final unveiling. Along the way, they gain tangible employment and life skills such as leadership, teamwork, responsibility and the power of taking initiative.

The work is demanding but rewarding. Youth Apprentices are empowered by the enduring accomplishment of their work and its positive impact on the community.

For 25 years, Structure Tone has supplied paint and painting equipment for scores of murals in Manhattan, The Bronx, Brooklyn, and Queens. We are grateful for their continued support.
