Programs
Youth Programs
Our workshops are centered on developing self-esteem, confidence, character, and collaboration.
​
Three primary goals:
​
-
To activate student awareness and engagement in their communities through art exercises and therapeutic conversations.
-
To empower students to use their voices, listen to others, and harness the power of empathy.
-
To relate the story of their journey to the broader communityWAV’s signature middle school program, WE, The Change, is now offered at 6 middle schools both during school hours and as an Out of School Time program (afterschool and summer).
Adult Programs
We use art as a catalyst for conversations that promote healing and resilience.
​
Our adult workshops are offered to diverse communities from women in prison, to adults with developmental disabilities, to victims of human trafficking. Whether writing a song, creating visual art, or capturing an oral history, our groups share, heal and grow together through a creative process.
WAV also offers documentary screenings and interactive workshops for their Life Stories project; a documentary featuring the oral histories of 10 women serving life or long sentences in prison.
