Description

Join Art From the Streets (AFTS) as we bring creativity, connection, and dignity directly to individuals experiencing homelessness at Austin’s shelters and navigation centers. Our outreach sessions offer a welcoming, judgment-free space where participants can create art, relieve stress, and explore creative expression. Volunteers must be 18 years or older, and no artistic experience is required.

    • Welcome participants, pass out supplies, and cheer on their creativity in a kind and supportive way
    • Build positive connections with artists who may be joining us for the first time
    • Lend a hand with clean-up and organizing at the end of each session
