About.
We were created out of necessity to serve our community.
We were created out of a need for equal access to creative outlets.
We believe that every child should have the ability to have access to positive self-expression.
​
At Access Art, we work within our local community to provide underprivileged youth access to the arts. We partner with other nonprofits to ensure that the children in our community have the tools they need to have a positive, safe environment to be expressive and create.
​
Some of the things we do is provide scholarships for youth to take music or dance lessons and participate in various art-focused activities. If a child wants to take an art class but cannot afford supplies, we will get them the supplies. We work with local artists to provide a variety of group art lessons for no cost to any youth in our community; all supplies are provided.
​
In a time when the youth in this country are facing more and more challenges, school budgets, and creative arts programs are being cut, we wanted to make sure our youth are not being forgotten and that EVERYONE has the opportunity to have a positive outlet!
Focus & Goals

Planning our first fundraisers & raising capital to be able to support our youth. Develop and build our relationships with our community partners.

We will be hosting the Treasure Coast Tattoo Convention. And other events. This year is about raising capital and successfully executing events we planned starting in 2023. As always we are working to develop and maintain or relationships with our besties aka our community partners. World domination may also be on the list of things to do :)
To Infinite & Beyond...
Are we there yet? No, let's take it one day at a time.
What is art to us?
What is art? A question that is highly debated within society.
Andy Warhol once said, "Art is anything you can get away with." And we don't disagree with Andy.
The dictionary enlightens us with this definition:
art [ahrt] noun
1. the quality, production, expression, or realm, according to aesthetic principles, of what is beautiful, appealing, or of more than ordinary significance.
2. the class of objects subject to aesthetic criteria; works of art collectively, as paintings, sculptures, or drawings: a museum of art; an art collection.
3. a field, genre, or category of art: Dance is an art.
4. the fine arts collectively, often excluding architecture: art and architecture.
5. any field using the skills or techniques of art: advertising art; industrial art.
There are many different definitions and opinions of what art is and is not. We believe that art is any form of creative expression. We believe in providing guidelines for basic techniques and ideas and allowing our participants to then form their own definitions.
​
Our goal is always to create a SAFE space for EVERYONE where they are free to create and be their unique, expressive selves!
