We believe that every youth has unique strengths that can be built upon in order to produce lasting change. Through a Strength-Based Approach, youth can develop their strengths, gain self-esteem and build positive relationships with their community.

​

During the evening, those who attend will have access to:

• A meal;

• Art supplies and music equipment, which participants can use to exercise their creativity or work on personal projects;

• And mentorship from staff and volunteers.

​

Each year, OIM also hosts an annual fundraising art auction, aimed at inspiring Innercity Arts attendees to create something inspiring for the auction. For more information about the art fundraiser, please visit our dedicated page.
