How Youth Arts for Change Began

Two young girls believed that creativity could change lives. What started as their shared love for art grew into a mission to bring joy and connection to people who need it most. They saw veterans longing for companionship, children with special needs who lit up during creative play, elders eager to share stories, and youth who had imagination but lacked access to creative tools.
They asked, “What if we could change that?”
And from that question, Youth Arts for Change was born — a youth‑led movement built on kindness, creativity, and the courage to make a difference.
