Youth Arts Interactive Space

Your Support Ensures Arts Engagement for Flagstaff and Northern Arizona Youth at Coconino Center for the Arts

We’re delighted that Creative Flagstaff has been awarded a $15k grant from the Robert Lehman Foundation toward our $30k initiative to expand educational programs and build permanent infrastructure for youth access to the visual arts at Coconino Center for the Arts. This includes a new interactive gallery space, digital interpretation tools, accessibility technologies, and hands-on learning opportunities for K–12 students.⁠ ⁠

With your support, we can ensure that these resources reach all young people, especially those in underserved communities.⁠ ⁠Help us raise the remaining $15k today and open the doors wider for Northern Arizona’s youth.⁠
