"Thinking globally - acting locally, CITYarts projects build bridges of cultural
understanding giving youth the opportunity to take an active role in shaping
their future".

MISSION
CITYarts empowers children and youth by bringing them together with
professional artists to create public art that addresses civic and social
issues, impacts their lives, and transforms their communities.
PROGRAM
We give our children and youth the opportunity to get actively involved
in their communities, do something to make their world a better place, and
assume responsibility through the creation of murals and mosaics led by
professional artists.
PROJECTS
CITYarts public art projects give youth a stage to ask, "What does peace look
like to me?", "What can I do to reduce the speed of global warming?",
and other urgent and relevant questions, and to address them artistically
through cooperation and creation.
OUTCOMES
Since 1968, CITYarts has created over 280
projects, transformed over 200 communities,
impacted over 100,000 kids,
collaborated with 500 artists, and
partnered with 300,000 volunteers in
the process, with the consistent sponsorship of corporations, foundations, and
individuals.
