Youth Arts Forum, Neighbor

Talented young artists and performers, between the ages of 5 and 18 years old, are provided a healthful and engaging outlet, through Youth Arts Forum, that allows them to channel their creativity in art and musical performances in appropriate and wonderful ways. 

<strong>We at Youth Arts Forum truly believe that this program provides the vehicle to unite the youth of the world through the arts!</strong>

Youth Arts Forum demonstrates a significant commitment for the visual and performing artist to help them express themselves, support their craft, enhance their self esteem and keep their very real and personal dreams alive.

<strong>For the visual artists</strong> Youth Arts Forum distributes arts supplies to those youngsters who may not be able to afford them. <br>There have been numerous gallery shows that were designed to professionally display and support the young artists from the local areas and from across the country. Several of these shows were held in the prestigious NOHO Art Gallery on Mercer Street in New York City.  

<strong>For the performing artist </strong>Youth Arts Forum has held several kids helping kids concerts in New York City. <br>One was at the famous East 13th Street Theater and the other 2 recent concerts in 2010 were held at the Studio at Webster Hall. <br> YAF pays for the venues, marketing, and production, PR as well as local and regional advertising for these venues. <br>YAF also helps to pay for travel and lodging of many of the young performing artists that are not able financially to pay to travel and stay in NYC for the concerts. <br>Youth Arts Forum works with several groups, and musicians throughout the year to sponsor and produce their songs. <i><br></i>

<i>Youth Arts Forum is accepting all donations and sponsorship relationships to help fund concerts, artist sponsorships and productions, framing and displays, as well as all expenses that are associated with supporting and producing the talents of the young artist.</i>

<strong>New Members are always welcome!</strong><i><br></i>
