OFFCenter Community Arts Project
To promote positive self identity and resilience through art making by providing a safe environment for creative social interaction with an emphasis to enhance the lives of those most marginalized in our community.
OFFCenter provides a free, safe, abundantly supplied art studio for the general public with an emphasis on providing economic, social and artistic opportunities for those with limited resources. Programs include ~30 hours of open art studio each week, an accessible art sales shop, low cost framing services, a community gallery featuring 8-10 non-juried exhibits each year, art activities with neighborhood Title 1 after school programs and an annual folk art festival featuring ~100 local folk artists and free art making activities.
