Art to Change the World creates a Maker Space (art room) in several venues, including several Transformational Housing for Women who have experienced homelessness and Youth Programs at the YMCA. ACW Teaching Artists have been trained by a licensed counselor to create lessons which include strategies to reduce trauma. Participants experiment with a variety of media including painting, sculpture, healing body adornment, quilt painting, henna applications, polymer clay, illustration, fabric hat creations and printmaking.
