INTRODUCTION TO ILLUSTRATION AND GRAPHIC DESIGN – Strategic Arts & Education Initiative workshops

The Confined Arts in partnership with Another Choice Youth and Family Outreach for their upcoming Strategic Arts & Education (SAE) Initiative workshops.

The Ford Foundation has awarded The Confined Arts in partnership with Another Choice Youth and Family Outreach Inc with a grant to launch the Strategic Arts & Education (SAE) initiative to provide free artistic literacy, professional development, and capacity-building to new/existing community-based artists, students, and advocates including justice-impacted people.

The mission of the SAE initiative is to provide free artistic literacy, professional development, and capacity building trainings and workshops to new and existing community-based artists (specifically those that have justice-involvement), young adults, students, advocates, teaching artists, practitioners, legal advocates, and organizations who want to learn more about entrepreneurship, community enhancement and/or how they can use the arts to mitigate the imprint of the criminal legal system.
