Youth Art Programs

Making the arts accessible to youth is one of ESAC's leading priorities. Our organization serves more than 12,000 youth on the East Side annually through school partnerships and programs outside the school day. Over the years, we have developed a strong track record of innovative programming for youth, a growing reputation as a developer of effective curriculum using the arts, and a reputation as a capable manager of youth projects.

Our programs range from our award-winning Arts Infusion, a school partnership program to boost learning of core curriculum, to ArtsYES, an out-of-school time program bringing high-quality, professional arts experiences to East Side children, to Artmobile, our van that winds through the streets of the East Side for seven weeks during the summer—packed with art supplies!
