Arts For All is an outstanding program. As a teacher in a public school, I worked with the Artists planning curriculum and implementing it in my classroom. This enhanced my students' learning in Literacy. We implemented drama, music, and movement to help the students enjoy literacy and they all ask when is the artist coming back? The director and artist always are helpful in adding to our school curriculum in creative ways! It is an enjoyable experience and very beneficial to my students' growth!

As principal of PS 15 our primary students have been actively engaged with the teaching artists of Arts for All. This is the fourth year we have participated. The teaching artists are excellent. They plan together with the teachers. Our focus has been literacy and the arts. The executive director is organized and truly reaches out to us to meet the needs of our students and programs. Arts for All in an integral participant in developing our overall scope and sequence in the arts.

Arts For All is a wonderful organization that brings Arts and Arts Programming to children in need. My involvement with AFA has been as a Teaching Artist. I am helping to develop a hands-on Shakespeare workshop for kids in need, in Chicago. AFA has traditionally worked primarily with kids in NYC, but with my program has decided to branch out to Chicago. What I am most impressed about is the absolute and total dedication. The staff's Number One goal is that children have a wonderful, artistic program, no matter what. Everything is about SERVING the kids; and while working on a shoestring, AFA DOES IT. AFA provides thousands of in-need children theatre, music, visual arts workshops, and ticket programs, reaching children who would otherwise go without. If Art feeds the soul, then AFA is the soul's Food Bank.

Arts for All is a wonderful organization, started by young artists committed to bringing arts to underserved public school students in New York City. As the arts coordinator for a K-12 public school in Jackson Heights, Queens, I appreciate the willingness to work with us on every step of our partnership--they never come in with pre-conceived ideas and are always willing to create opportunities that work for our student population. We have never been disappointed with their participation.

This non-profit is assertively generous, supportive, and organized. Their support of different arts programs, both on and off-site, have served to grow our arts program by leaps and bounds. They have offered us funding for home-grown productions and support staff for such (including voice teachers, set designers) and always have us in mind when a group of free tickets are available to shows in Manhattan. I cannot imagine our arts program without the support of Arts for All, Inc.

Arts For All is a altruistic driven organization aimed at helping deliver art programs to those less fortunate in the NYC area. Never before have I been involved in an organization that followed through as much as AFA. If you're looking to make a difference in the community, AFA is an organization that does just that and more.

Arts for All is a small but incredibly effective arts outreach organization. I have volunteered at many AFA events and have also worked as a teaching artist with the organization. I am always impressed with the breadth of their efforts, promoting the arts in all five boroughs of NYC. I have always been treated with respect, and found the organization to be organized and communicative. I am grateful for the many opportunities they have given me to affect lives through art.

bring more free programs to in-need schools, communities, and kids across NYC, exposing thousands more to arts through viewing performances, classes with teaching artists, and general mischief and art-making.

Great non profit!!! I have been envolved with Arts for All (AFA) for the past 4 years and have enjoyed each and every volunteering opportunity here. Combining two very strong services, Arts and Community outreach, AFA provides an invaluable service to children in the greater new york metro area by providing them means to a dying service.

It's all about the eyes. The reward is watching the myriad of expressions flash across their faces: surprise, pride, wonderment, pure joy, and the moment of finally understanding. As a volunteer, my favorite memory was helping a group of handicapped students tour the Metropolitan Museum of Art for the first time. The Arts for All leader's talent for facilitating, both visually and emotionally what the paintings and sculptures were attempting to express, proved that art does speak to the soul. Arts for All, Inc. mission is to start a conversation with every student in the city.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
that I can help students treasure their own "voice" in creating works of art. Teaching children that appreciating their uniqueness is not only valuable, but necessary to their genuine happiness and self-acceptance.
