Volunteer Program Mission Statement
The Collective’s non-profit, volunteer program gives passionate high school students the opportunity to make an impact in their local community through art and creativity. The after-school program develops skills in leadership and team building as the students act as mentors, collaborators, and content creators. With the vast offerings available in the creative lab, we challenge our crew to stretch their imaginations and shape the future of creativity while providing service to create meaningful social change.
