Welcome to Your HeART Space …“A creative haven to transform lives through art.”
Your HeART Space is New London’s future creative haven, a transformative space where art and personal growth converge to empower and uplift youth communities. Through the power of artistic expression, we ignite profound positive changes in young lives who will gain the power to plant seeds in their own home along with the surrounding communities. Here, we provide a nurturing environment, diverse artistic experiences, and a supportive community that encourages self-discovery, healing, and personal transformation.
THE VISION: Our vision is to create a community where all young people have the opportunity to engage with the transformative power of art. We envision a world where young people are empowered to use their art as a tool for personal growth, social change, and collective healing.
THE MISSION: Our mission is to provide funded art classes that empower and inspire youth in our community through the transformative power of art. We believe that every young person should have access to high-quality art programming that cultivates creativity, self-expression, and critical thinking skills. By fostering a safe and inclusive environment that encourages exploration and experimentation, we aim to build confidence, resilience, and a sense of community among our participants. Through our grassroots efforts, we seek to create a generation of young artists who are equipped to engage with the world around them in meaningful and impactful ways.
