Dear Friends,
We are so honored to be chosen as the only arts organization to celebrate DKNY's 20th Anniversary! We are also honored to be in the company of four other dedicated organizations: City Harvest, Ready Willing & Able, Fund for Public Schools, and Urban Zen Foundation. Congratulations to you all!
CITYarts is looking forward to celebrating later this summer when the Chari.Tee will be sold in DKNY stores. We will make sure to announce it to you all over
the summer. Meanwhile, come celebrate with us CITYarts' 41st Anniversary on May 18th at Sotheby's. The invitation will be emailed shortly.
Enjoy Spring!

Thinking globally and acting locally,
CITYarts' projects build bridges of cultural understanding and give
youth the opportunity to take an active role in shaping their future.
The Young Minds Build Bridges program connects our youth in New York to the international
community, spreading their voices in a quest for peace and raising awareness of global warming.
Our projects give youth a stage to ask, "What
can I do to reduce the speed of global warming?" Our teens are taking
the future into their own hands, getting actively involved in their
communities, and assuming responsibility through the creation of murals
and mosaics with CITYarts.
Since 1968, CITYarts has created 272 projects that have
transformed communities and impacted over 100,000 kids, collaborated
with more than 500 artists, and partnered with over 300,000 volunteers
in the process.
Thank you in advance for your generous support and for
joining CITYarts in celebrating 40 years of "Making a Difference
Through the Arts." |
