Description

Through visual and performing arts workshops, performances and festivals, our mission is to give youth from all backgrounds the tools, confidence and inspiration to make a positive difference in their communities and the world… from the inside out. Events include "Diversity Fest", "Rhythms...music, poetry & art", "Safe & Scary Halloween" & "What's on our Minds" (original plays created by youth).

What We Do: Founded in 1996, Inside Out Community Arts utilizes the arts to promote healthy interaction among diverse at-risk and underserved Los Angeles middle-school youth. Through community events and after-school workshops led by specially trained teams of professional artists and high-school-age mentors, Inside Out bridges cultural, geographic, socioeconomic and differently-abled boundaries to support youth in creating and presenting topical theater and art, empowering them to make positive choices as individuals and members of the greater community.
