Offcenter Community Arts Project

“Offcenter's mission is to promote positive self-identity and resilience through art making by providing a safe environment for creative social interaction with an emphasis on enhancing the lives of those most marginalized in our community. Offcenter seeks to build community through regular participation in art making and creative dialog among people of socially and economically diverse backgrounds. No matter one's background, every particpant finds acceptance and self discovery through the arts and social dialogue.”

“Part iii line 28a art supplies which were taped to the front windows of the building for safe and contactless pickup. While some pandemic restrictions were still in place, offcenter was able to offer free classes in painting, drawing, sewing, mixed media and other topics. A new printmaking shop was opened offering free classes. Art boxes were provided to group homes and homeless organizations as well as continuing the art supply commons program in which artists fill out a form to order free supplies. Additionally, virtual programs were continued including "conversations with creatives" that were posted to you tube. We participated in first fridays, supporting abq art walk and downtown galleries and businesses. We also had puppet parades.”
