In our Fostering Art program, youth explore and document their inner and outer worlds through photography and creative writing.
Fostering Art builds hard skills in photography while also recognizing and addressing the personal histories of its participants. Fostering Art builds trusting relationships between participants and staff, and youth receive both clear expectations and the support they need to achieve their goals. Course instructors focus on the healthy development of the youth without ignoring the difficulties they have experienced.
Those who grow up in foster care often are neither seen nor heard. In Fostering Art, youth work collaboratively to share their stories and their art with the world outside the foster care system - and enhance their self-respect in the process.
