Our Arts & Culture program provides leadership development and art services for immigrant youth as part of their integration to the United States. We provide creative avenues of expression through mixed-media arts such as painting murals, creating mosaics, and learning to play musical instruments. The Memories of El Monte Community Arts Space is an expansion of our arts programming at a satellite location.
Art and cultural connection is an essential part of healing our youth. While high-risk and at-risk youth may struggle with academics, many excel in the arts. They develop assurance and respect while discovering creative expression to be uplifting and a positive release for pent-up emotions.
