Whitney Museum of American Art
Overall, respondents rated their teen art program
as the most positive influence in their youth.
Whitney Museum of American Art
“It’s sort of a lifelong transformation. Having gone
through the program I’ve felt like the museum is home to
me. . . . Even if I’ve never been to a particular museum
before, I just know how to be in that space. I value
museums more and more.” (CAMH participant)

PHOTO JOURNAL SNAPSHOT:
“Think big!” An artist only develops by learning to take risks. At the beginning of the
school year, most of my students dare not draw or paint on a sheet of paper larger than
8.5x11”. This is where I come in. with positive encouragement and clear expectations, all
students will paint on a 4’x5’ canvas that they build themselves. During my
apprenticeship at MOCA I was encouraged to take risks and learn from the
experiences.
– John Ildefonso (MOCA Participant)
