THE ARTS

BLU believes providing artistic and cultural opportunities are especially important given how prevalent the arts are in our daily lives. BLU's Arts programming focuses on arts education, exposure & curated spaces.

The Imagine Fund is a dynamic 10-week program designed to empower impactful young artists.

 

In this program, participants receive a $1,000 budget to bring their projects to life while learning essential project management and professional development skills.

 

They will collaborate with fellow artists, attend inspiring workshops, and explore key topics for artistic success. Dedicated mentors provide personalized feedback, resources, and best practices to elevate their craft.

ARTS EXPOSURE

According to the National Endowment for the Arts, at-risk students who have access to the arts in or out of school also tend to have better academic results, better workforce opportunities, and more civic engagement.

​

BLU 's Arts Field Trips expose  participants to the arts whenever possible through  museums, concerts, plays, and more!  Read about some of the programs BLU has visited over the last few years below.
