Youth Art Exchange Revenue and Competitors

Youth Art Exchange sparks a shared creative practice between professional artists and public high school students, furthering youth as leaders, thinkers, and artists in San Francisco. To accomplish this, Youth Art Exchange offers citywide arts, high quality education programming, field trips, events, and more. Our current disciplines include Architecture + Construction, Black + White Photography, Music Production, Fashion Design, Dance, and Printmaking. Programs include: – Fall and Spring Session Free After School Arts Programs – Fall and Spring Session Free In-School Arts Programs – Stipended Spring Internship Program – Stipended Summer Arts Internship Program – Stipended Youth leadership positions: Youth Advisory Board, Teaching Assistant Positions, Alumni Internship – San Francisco Youth Arts Summit The majority of students who come to Youth Art Exchange end up staying on for multiple sessions. They stay with us because they make friends from outside of their school and neighborhood, because they explore relevant themes that they come up with themselves, and because they get to know their city better. Finally, they stay because they and the faculty artists leading their classes become each other’s biggest fans. Our youth are diverse, and what they share in common is motivation, curiosity, and a willingness to put themselves out there and try something new. They help create what Youth Art Exchange is, and it is a place that is safe to do all of those things – to be weird, to be serious, to be unsure but try it anyway. It’s a place where they can learn how to best articulate their ideas and have the space to share them. Formerly known as Out of Site Youth Arts Center, Youth Art Exchange was founded in 2000 by architect Beth Rubenstein and visual artist Jennifer Stuart.
