About Us
mission
ARTS! By The People, Inc. is a non profit organization serving the communities of Northern New Jersey. Our mission is to conduct educational programs, classes and sessions in the creative arts, including art, music, dance movement and creative writing, for the public, especially for seniors and youth.
Our goal is to empower individuals through collaborative acts of self expression. We believe that self awareness and communication come forth in shared creative acts, and that the arts offer universal benefits for people of all ages and backgrounds.
Our interest lies in facilitating creative environments in order to help people become comfortable with their own creative process and find its best place in their lives.
We feel that the creative arts can teach children important values of self-confidence and motivation and reward senior citizens with a dynamic interactive group setting.
A partial list of programs made possible by generous donations and grants:
All our programs are free. We believe that the arts should be available and accessible to all!
