Our Programs

The Art of Elysium is an artist organization built on the idea that through service, art becomes a catalyst for social change.

We offer academic and community programming matching volunteer artists with communities in need. Artists work with The Art of Elysium’s program directors in their field to develop, or plug, into existing programs. Volunteer artist are then eligible for artist support services.

Artists volunteer. We support our artists. Through service, our creative communities thrive.
