Review for Creative Action Institute, Ipswich, MA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

ArtCorps has pumped new vitality into on the one hand my desire to help people in other countries like Guatemala and on the other my love of art. And then married them in my role as board member advancing ArtCorps programs. I have visited ArtCorps artists and projects in Antigua, Totonicapan and Lake Atitlan in Guatemala and been impressed with the participation and enthusiasm. This winter I plan to visit more projects in other countries and complete my scuba certification too.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Get more board members and volunteers to develop the resources to form and strengthen relationships with other non-profits, arts groups and community development/education groups; document the beneficial effects of using art to get people going to accomplish social change, and show the results to the major funding groups to get their help to spread ArtCorps' work more broadly.

Will you volunteer or donate to this organization beyond what is required of board members?
