FOR THE 2024 PROGRAM YEAR, ARTS US IS STILL RECOVERING FINANCIALLY FROM THE EFFECTS OF THE PANDEMIC. WE PIVOTED TO FOCUS ON HIGH SCHOOL YOUTH IN OUR AFTERSCHOOL PROGRAM, WITH THE GOAL OF BUILDING THEIR SKILLS TO THE POINT THAT THEY CAN SERVE AS LEADS FOR OUR AFTERSCHOOL ELEMENTARY PROGRAM, WHEN WE REINTRODUCE IT. OUR ACCOMPLISHMENTS THIS YEAR INCLUDE. RAN A 6 WEEK STEM ARTS SUMMER CAMP IN PARTNERSHIP WITH SAINT PAUL PUBLIC SCHOOLS THAT SERVED 65 - 2ND-5TH GRADE YOUTH. ADDITIONALLY, WE HAD A WAITING LIST OF OVER 70 YOUTH THIS YEAR, INDICATING INCREASED NEED AND BUDDING INTEREST. WE ALSO SECURED PARTNERSHIP WITH RAMSEY COUNTY MASTER GARDENERS AND THE MINNESOTA LANDSCAPE ARBORETUM. THESE 2 PARTNERSHIPS INFUSED A HIGH LEVEL OF EXPERTISE AND EXCITEMENT INTO OUR SUMMER PROGRAM AND WE LOOK FORWARD TO BUILDING ON IT GOING FORWARD. STARTED A YOUTH-LED HIGH SCHOOL AFTERSCHOOL PROGRAM THAT SERVED OVER 60 YOUTH THROUGHOUT THE SCHOOL YEAR. THE PROGRAM FOCUSED ON ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND STEM AND HAS GAINED A LOT OF TRACTION AND EXCITEMENT AMONG LOCAL YOUTH. PROVIDED STEM WORKSHOPS TO OVER 8,000 TWIN CITIES YOUTH THROUGH A SERIES OF EVENTS AROUND THE TWIN CITIES. HOSTED 6 YOUTH-LED HIGH SCHOOL ART AND GAMES NIGHT THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. PROVIDED SPACE FOR OTHER YOUTH-SERVING NONPROFITS TO CARRY OUT PROGRAMMING, EVENTS , AND A VARIETY OF WORKSHOPS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.
