Paint Me Empowered is one of our favorite activities to do in the community. We invite little Black Girls into a setting to feel empowered, encouraged and brag a little bit about themselves. In May 2023, we're hosting  Paint Me Empowered in East Oakland with new artists and over 50 young girls.

Paint Me Empowered taps into the community healing framework and incorporates it into what communities are already doing or may want to do to promote community healing. Paint Me Empowered is dedicated to empowering at-risk children while improving neglected communities through public art. By engaging the children of a community, we endeavor to engage the entire community and bring about positive change. Our mission is to continue working together through partnerships and community resources to create spaces where Black Girls thrive. 

Paint Me Empowered works to continually improve the quality of our programming by connecting with experienced art teachers to lead each program. With each program, we seek to improve the community and empower children who take part, with the belief that they can change the world for the better.

We hope you join us in our quest to, Paint Us Empowered!!
