ABOUT THE ART OF COMMUNITY SERVICE

The Art of Community Service is a unique art-based residency program that pairs American high school students with their foreign counterparts as they develop and execute a community art project like a large scale mural or sculpture garden. Facilitated by a professional artist, the art project serves as the common link between both groups of students and forms the basis for dialogue, insight into respective cultures and ultimately new friendships.

No Art Experience is Necessary ? Limited To 10 Participants Per Team
