We have big changes in store and need YOU! We're looking for people who are enthusiastic, innovative and have a can-do attitude.

We're looking for people not afraid to jump in and help us reach that next level.

To support and empower Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer young adults pursuing careers in the arts with educational opportunities to enable them to achieve their career goals.
Description
Arts Out Loud exists to support and empower Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer young adults pursuing careers in the with educational opportunities to enable them to achieve their career goals.
Our main focus is providing scholarships to students attending college to pursue an art-related degree. Arts Out Loud also hosts industry-specific events that offer connections with working professionals in their field of interest in the hopes of building lifelong connections.
Young LGBTQ people who have been stigmatized, bullied, or isolated because of their sexual orientation or gender identity often lack critical family, financial, and community support. These are kids with great promise and talent and they often give up because they don’t believe success is possible for them. We empower them with resources for expanding their education and strengthening their sense of pride. Because they matter.
