Founded in 1998, Art Sanctuary uses the power of black art to transform individuals, create and build community and foster cultural understanding. Our core values: (1) we believe art connects people (2) we are committed to the value of the inner city (3) we are committed to preserving black art (4) we are a catalyst for transformative experiences through black art. Our mission and core values come to life through our work in two ways: arts education and family/public programs.
