COMMUNITY ART HEALTH PROGRAM
The Program
Art for Climate Resilience is a six-month community arts in health program that combines creative expression and food justice to empower Houston’s Third and Fifth Ward in addressing climate risks such as heat index, climate mental health, disaster preparedness, and food insecurity.
Our Why
Our mission is to empower communities through art, enhancing climate resilience and promoting sustainable practices while encouraging active participation in environmental initiatives.
We know the power of art to heal, which is why we integrate trauma-informed and inclusive principles into our work and this program.
