YO! seeks to provide people in the neighborhood with increased access to fresh, locally grown vegetables; provide meaningful and valuable experiences for young people, and connect youth to their local environment. We do this through maintaining our gardens, demonstrating food growing techniques in small growing areas, and providing skills and empowerment training for young people in the neighborhood.
The mission of Grand Street Community Arts is to create unity and connection, especially through the arts, in an inner-city neighborhood with racial and economic diversity.
The arts center creates a supportive community and focuses on its youth. The center presents a broad spectrum of arts programs and performances that encourage art as a natural tool of expression available to everyone. By restoring historic St. Anthony’s church as its home, the arts center creates and nurtures a link with the unique living history of the local community.
