Arts Bridging the Gap uplifts the voices, experiences, and self-expression of youth from under-resourced communities through healing arts programs. Through our work, youth develop interpersonal skills and growth mindsets that enable them to be their best selves in our community. Through four primary in/after school programs and an array of special projects, ABG utilizes the arts as a conduit for healing and empowerment amongst LA’s most under-resourced, systemically excluded communities. Arts+Wellness (A+W) — Built in response to compounding effects of COVID on at risk communities, this multidisciplinary program focuses on healing trauma and supporting high school students in developing their wellness and mindfulness through empathy building, trauma healing, restorative justice, creative expression, and civic leadership. Each program has an art focus such as urban farming, garden design, spoken word, visual art, and more! LA Street Art Initiative — Inspiring civic leadership and neighborhood pride, this program gathers artists, community members, and youth to co-design and paint public murals. Futures Rewired — Crafted for 12-18 year old female-identifying, non-binary, and gender expansive youth, this program exposes students to immersive art/tech STEAM, as interests and career pathways. Futures Rewired has been in residence at GALA: Girls Academic Leadership Academy since 2016. PenPal Art Share — Expanding worldviews and cultural understanding with art, this program connects LA youth with young people across the globe.
