ABOUT: The Urban Ministry Center’s ArtWorks 945 program uses art-making to create a therapeutic space for the homeless to develop transformative relationships and opportunities to work toward permanent housing. The studio is open four days a week offering a safe space, supplies, and social support to program participants and volunteers. When a piece is purchased, 50% of the purchase goes to the artist and 50% is returned to the studio to buy more supplies.
