Interrupt Trauma with Art and Kindness in Iowa
Organization information
Iowa Arts-In-Education DBA ArtForce Iowa
Location: Des Moines, United States of America
Summary
Do you think it's ok for a child to grow up fearful and isolated? Imagine a world where youth who have been traumatized can find a safe place to heal. That's our vision. ArtForce Iowa reaches out to children ages 12-18 who are refugees, immigrants, or system-involved with an invitation to make art and music. Artist mentors foster youth artists' belief in their own creative power. We are all on a healing journey, and ArtForce Iowa aims to interrupt ongoing childhood trauma with art and kindness.
