We Care Arts is a non-profit organization that helps
emotionally, mentally and physically disabled adults and youth
achieve greater personal independence. Through a variety of art
classes and experiences, we promote the artist's individuality,
self esteem, community skills, ability to focus, life skills,
responsibility, confidence and job skills.
We provide a loving team of paid staff and volunteers who create
an environment which allows our artists to discover and grow
their individual talents. We offer extensive training for each
artist in a creative area appropriate for his/her interests
including: painting, pottery, computer art/design, jewelry
making and sewing.
Through the creation and sale of
their individually crafted
items, artists are able to affirm their self worth, take steps
back into the mainstream of society and receive a supplemental
income. We Care Arts provides all training and materials to
artists and a portion of the proceeds of all sales is returned
to the artist. The remainder goes back to program funding.
