Create Remarkable Experiences, While Providing Artist New Platforms
WHY THE BACHELOR OF ARTS?
The Bachelors of Arts is a community-based organization finding resiliency and healing through arts, literature, and culture. Using creative platforms, we engage artists as community activists to build awareness and connections for health and wellbeing.
REMARKABLE EXPERIENCES, PROVIDING ARTIST NEW PLATFORMS
Platform: a means or opportunity to communicate ideas or information to a group of people : the grounds or basis for further action
We give people the opportunity to participate in experiences that enrich their lives and shape positive perspectives. By providing encounters that spark joy in individuals we create a sense of community and foster genuine connections. We seek out artists to create these transformative experiences; drawing inspiration from musicians, cooks, curators, administrators, educators, funders, anthropologists, healthcare professionals, and others.
By cultivating conditions that allow artists to connect with individuals and families we empower communities to express their needs and desires. Then we must develop the capacity to address those needs and fulfill those desires.
“Art and culture engagement, appreciation, and access work towards developing social capitol,” Derek Kendrick, Founder, the Bachelors of Arts, said.
“This social capitol connects us, promotes collective well-being.”
