Artists and Youth Speak Up!
“Asian Arts Initiative is an amazing organization. Even
though it
is called Asian Arts there has always been a mix of races and cultures
here.:
-Ty,
Youth Arts Workshop Alumni and
current Asian Arts Initiative Intern
“The Initiative really provided a space for me to feel good
about
wanting to be creative. I think that was tremendous in terms
of
my growth and development as a person in general but definitely as an
artist.”
-Jeff
Cylkowski, Former Artist in
Residence
"Asian Arts Initiative has
always been a wonderful place for me
to be able to express my feelings in a positive and enjoyable way.
I am able to enhance my creativity without judgment. I have
made
so many wonderful friends that have changed my life. I can proudly say
that the Initiative is like my second home."
-Annie,
Youth Artist
