ACHF Arts Access
Develop opportunities for youth and adult artists to work with local officials, neighborhood organizations, higher education partners, and resident leaders on neighborhood improvement and policy initiatives. We continue to build arts-based partnerships (Minneapolis Downtown Improvement District, Trust for Public Land, Common Bond Communities and more). We measure learning through listening sessions, pre and post surveys and partner input. 2: JXTA will train even more youth in the visual arts, employ more youth through JXTALab, connect them to college and careers in Art, Design and creative leadership strengthening the Minnesota arts sector. We measure our continued growth in visual arts training and JXTALab employment. We expect nearly 100 youth will be trained and employed in part time jobs as screen printers, graphic designers, environmental designers and contemporary artists this year.
The arts are interwoven into every facet of community life. Youth used art as a means to connect with individuals across our community exploring issues like transportation, public safety, community beautification and public art. 2: The arts thrive in Minnesota. In the past year we trained over 100 youth in our Visual Arts Literacy program. We employed 70 youth in art and design jobs. Additionally we have strengthened and expanded our pathways to college and careers program.
