Artists For Humanity's mission is to bridge economic, racial and social divisions by providing underserved youth with the keys to self-sufficiency through paid employment in the arts.
Since 1991, Artists For Humanity has been empowering and employing Boston teens in an intensive program of arts, creativity and enterprise. AFH partners youth in small groups with professional artists/designers to design, create and sell art products. With fully equipped studios in seven artistic media, youth and mentors collaborate on creative projects, many specifically commissioned by clients. In the process, young artists develop entrepreneurial skills, and introduce audiences to the voice, vision and virtuosity of today’s youth. Artists For Humanity has produced fine art and creative products for most of Boston’s largest firms and organizations.
At the heart of Artists for Humanity is the belief that skills equal power and opportunity. AFH has three goals, which provide urban teens with:
· a safe meaningful place where they are respected for their contributions and develop mentoring relationships so important to teens.
· an opportunity to have a voice through exhibitions, commercial services, and public presentations;
· the respect and responsibility of paid employment that promotes self-esteem and financial accountability. At AFH, young people learn entrepreneurship and get paid for their own creative production.
In 2004, Artists For Humanity established its headquarters, the Artists For Humanity EpiCenter, in the Fort Point Arts District of Boston. Built to meet the highest levels of sustainability set by the US Green Building Council, the building informs our youth about issues of environmental stewardship, and serves as an inspiration and backdrop for their creativity. Named one of the Top Ten Green Buildings in the country, and one of the 5 Most Beautiful Buildings in Boston, it provides a fitting venue for perhaps the largest permanent collection of youth-created fine art and design in the nation.
