On a sunny Valentine's Day Sunday, Bucketworks volunteer Ron Bean, 5 young people, 2 board members, and other volunteers (including myself) moved ArtWorks for Milwaukee into the new Bucketworks space.

We'd like to give them a warm Bucketworks welcome!

ArtWorks's mission and goals are aligned with our own.

Mission: 

"Provide meaningful employment and training through an apprenticeship program in the arts for Milwaukee area youth with and without disabilities."

Goals:

  • Provide meaningful employment experiences to youth with and without disabilities, ages 14-21
  • Provide a mentoring between youth with and without disabilities, and professional and established artists
  • Increase public awareness of the importance of the arts and art education
  • Foster cultural awareness and promote integration among students with and without disabilities
  • Provide a professional art gallery and other exhibition opportunities for Apprentice work.

We are proud to become partners in our new space.
