Mission

AWE's mission is to provide youth in Milwaukee with arts enrichment programs that advance learning, enhance human potential, and cultivate community.

What We Do

Artists Working in Education, Inc. (AWE), is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that sponsors professional artists to nurture the imaginations of Milwaukee youth by bringing creative visual arts experiences directly to schools, community centers and informal settings such as parks, playgrounds, libraries, and community events.

AWE artists guide children through the process of transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary. Meaningful arts programming helps youth develop new ways of seeing the world, enhanced inquisitiveness, creativity, flexibility, imagination, and confidence.
