About

Art Transforms Inc. (ATI), is a non-profit organization, founded by an artist who saw a lack of visual art opportunities in communites of color. She decided to link with other artists to fill the gap. ATI is based in South East Queens, NY. We are rooted in traditional art techniques but allow personal creativity to shine in every painting.

Testimonials

Patricia Searight, Grandmother

I joined the art class because I have always wanted to draw and paint. The class is teaching me both! The instructor is patient and understanding. I love the class.

Rafael Simmons, Grandmother

What art means to me, its a very relaxing feeling. As I paint everything just goes away and I just focus on what I am painting.

DMB, Domestic Violence Survivor

As a survivor of domestiv violence I have experienced nightmares of the abuse. As I began to participate in the circle of transformation and ccreate art the nightmares have slowed down. I know art is a way to get what is inside out and I enjoy the sessions when we use art to express ourselves and feelings.

Avery Gamble, 8 yr. old student

I like art because it’s really fun to do. I have been making art since I was in Pre-K. I especially like to make collages and art with black girls like me. I hope people think I draw well.
