Description
Ashe' accomplishes this mission by presenting and producing cultural art through the creation of partnerships and collaborations that bring the forces of community development and artist support together. The early history of Efforts of Grace was dominated by community visual art and eventually performance art projects that toured throughout the state of Louisiana and the South.

Our partnerships and alliances include artists, cultural workers and cultural/arts organizations, change agents, churches, community advocates and advocacy organizations, service delivery organizations, schools, and service organizations.
