| Abstract | Just as the economic downturn and narrowing of the curriculum have prompted school districts to cut art classes, a nonprofit organization in Baltimore gives disadvantaged youth the opportunity to create art, earn a stipend, and learn valuable job skills. Each summer, Art with a Heart hires about 40 young people to make marketable art--tables and chairs, jewelry, and lamps, among other pieces--which they then sell at Artscape, an annual summer arts festival in Baltimore. The author discusses Art with a Heart's Summer Job Program in Baltimore which inspires creativity and teaches responsibility. Art with a Heart uses art as a vehicle to teach job skills to students, many of whom have never filled out a job application or looked an interviewer in the eye. The program also allows teens to express themselves through visual art, an opportunity they may not get during the school year. (ERIC). |
