Artwell Collaborative Inc.

Mission

ArtWell's mission is to create supportive spaces for Philadelphia youth to engage in artmaking as a pathway to self-expression and wellness. Through free in-school and community-based art programming, we equip young people with tools to regulate emotions, build resilience, and experience joy. Our mission is to support young people and their communities through multidisciplinary arts expression, education, and creative reflection. We aim to celebrate their strengths, help them thrive while facing complex challenges, and awaken their dreams.

Vision

We envision a Philadelphia where schools and neighborhoods nurture creativity and integrate the arts as an essential means of learning, community-building, and personal growth.

Goals

1.Meet more of the demand for our free, healing-centered youth art programming (We the Poets, the Art of Growing Leaders, and EcoArts) by bringing on waitlisted classes at schools and community sites across Philadelphia, particularly those in under-resourced neighborhoods.
2.Relaunch our MasterPeace program in FY27, now designed to guide Philly youth (14-24) who are disconnected from work and school in the history, planning, and implementation of public art (ie. murals, mosaics). This pilot is designed to meet youth where they are, with paid creative work, trusted mentorship, and trauma-informed care.
3.Increase organizational capacity by growing and diversifying the organization’s revenue streams, expanding and diversifying our Board of Directors, and working to have a one-year financial reserve.
