ATG new tagline

Arts to Grow, a non-profit arts education organization, is looking for volunteer photographers to photograph our Theater Arts program's culminating performance in Riverdale, Bronx. We run programs throughout the year at several schools in the New York City metro area, and we often call on volunteer videographers to record the exciting visual, musical, and performing arts that is happening inside our classrooms.

This volunteer opportunity is focused on capturing ATG's theater arts class in action and communicating our mission to a wider audience. We seek your involvement so that we may make it possible to offer more inner-city kids opportunities to learn and grow through the arts.

Program Location: In-Tech Academy, Riverdale, Bronx

Program Date: Thursdays and Fridays, 4pm-6pm

ATG is a non-profit organization that collaborates with New York City metro area public schools and community organizations to provide music, visual arts, theater, dance and literary programs to underserved urban youth.

Description

About Arts to Grow

Arts to Grow (ATG) is a non-profit youth development program partnering with schools and community organizations to bring classes in the arts to low-income youth. From September 2006 - June 2013, Arts to Grow has worked with 16 partner schools and community organizations serving 2000 kids living in Manhattan, Queens, the Bronx, and Hoboken and Newark, NJ.

Founded in February 2005 by Mallory King, ATG offers youth ages 5-18 opportunities to participate in performing, visual, and literary arts programs under the direction of qualified teaching artists. We have programs in New York City and northern New Jersey at schools and community centers.

Arts to Grow helps young people grow intellectually, artistically, and socially. We focus on students who have limited access to arts programming either in school or during out-of-school time. Through engagement in the artistic process, we offer participants opportunities to learn how to work productively with peers, with adults, and independently. Our programs nurture creativity, critical thinking, and self-esteem, helping each participant to develop a love of learning.
