Mission Statement
An art making and mentoring program that empowers girls, trans and nonbinary youth through art, writing, and comedy workshops and other inclusive activities that build confidence and foster creativity, collaboration, and forming trusting relationships.
Statement of Purpose
We believe that treating young people as the full humans they are and creating a safe space to experience the burst of self-confidence and freedom that comes from creating original material, sharing their work, expressing oneself through art and comedy, bonding, practicing mindfulness and engaging in social justice conversations with peers and mentors builds the next generation of female and gender nonconforming individuals that will define leadership, creative innovation, and social transformation for the future.
