Students participate in a professional process of submitting artwork and artist statements, and, if they so choose, selling their pieces to the public. They receive half the proceeds from the art they sell, along with information about financial responsibility and higher education. The other half of the proceeds goes back toward ArtEsteem programming.The 26th Annual (2024) ArtEsteem Exhibitions theme was Replenish The Soul. The ArtEsteem team crafted this theme of replenishment and regeneration to provide hope amidst the struggles seen in students, school sites, communities, and the world. The 2024 Exhibition contained a wide range of artwork, including pieces from ArtEsteem Visual Arts, Cultural Arts, Digital Media, and Animation classes at 11 school sites, Oakland Legacy Project classes, St. Marys Center portraits by elders taught by artist Jack Leamys workshop, Self as Super Hero life sizes by the ArtEsteem teaching artist team, and a selection of pieces from the archive collection.To share successes from the 2024 Exhibition: over 170 artworks of various mediums displayed; approximately 200 community attendees; a stunning Cultural Arts drumming performance and fashion show from West Oakland Middle School students.To highlight one of the student artist cohorts whose artwork featured in the 2024 Exhibition: ArtEsteems Oakland Legacy Project after-school leadership cohort (Legacy) implements an arts-integrated curriculum emphasizing leadership development, environmental awareness, and STEAM, and increases access to the arts for Oakland youth. 2023-24 Legacy curriculum engaged deeply with environmental awareness, cultural history, and community advocacy through the lens of art inside and outside of the classroom.In the fall of 2023, as part of their field trips, OLP participated in the Bay Area Youth Climate Summit, held at the California Academy of Sciences in San Francisco. The summit offered an array of workshops and activities, including a demonstration on how to use the phone app iNaturalist in community science for recording and sharing information about biodiversity. Students used the app to identify various flora and fauna found in Golden Gate Park. Afterwards, the students had the chance to visit the Japanese Tea Garden. Its so green here, exclaimed one student. This field trip contributed to the students understanding of Legacys curriculum themes: Environmental Advocacy, Sustainable Art, and Nature As Medium. Their final project of upcycled denim portraits represented lessons of sustainability and waste. 397306 394451 Since 1995, AHC's award-winning ArtEsteem academic day and after school visual arts and extended arts programming cultivates creative, engaged, and successful children and youth through artistic, social-emotional, and academic standards based skills. The curriculum combines Attitudinal Healing Principles with culturally, academically, and environmentally relevant arts instruction and culminates in an annual student art exhibition. ArtEsteem serves over 2,500 children at an average of fifteen Bay Area school sites during the fiscal year. Among its over 20 awards and recognitions, a sample of what ArtEsteem has received include: 2024 Black History Month Commendation from Alameda County Board of Supervisors, 2019 Community Award from the Oakland Unified School Districts Office of African American Male Achievement, 2016 Best Arts Nonprofit from East Bay Express Best of the East Bay 2016: Arts & Culture Writers Picks, 2012 Certificate of Special Congressional Recognition from former Congresswoman Barbara Lee, and 2002/1998/1993 Jampolsky Awards for Exemplary Work in Attitudinal Healing from the International Conference for Attitudinal Healing. 61570 52000 The Oakland Super Heroes Mural Project is a crucial community beautification effort creatively originated and led by Amana Harris, Executive Director of ArtEsteem. Since 2012, ArtEsteem has completed four of five large-scale (approximately 12,000 sq. ft. of concrete space) murals in the I-580 freeway underpasses between San Pablo Avenue and West Street in West Oakland. Using the theme of super (s)hero characters that embody the students image and use special powers to address our communitys deepest concerns, the murals were designed by elementary, middle, and high school students in District 3 schools and included community participation in the design and painting process. The first of the five murals was conceptually designed by students from McClymonds High School. The second was conceptually designed by students from Westlake Middle School, the third by students from West Oakland Middle School, the fourth by students from Hoover Elementary, and the fifth by students in ArtEsteems Oakland Legacy Project after-school program. All schools and students involved were engaged in the Self as Super Hero process, a curriculum developed by Executive Director Harris. 1063295 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false true false false false false false false false false true false false false false true false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false true 24 0 true 27 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 7 5 true false false false false false false false false false false true true true true true true false false false X X Amana Harris 5106525530 3111 West Street Oakland CA 94608 Amana Harris Exec Director 40.00 0.00 X X 97361 0 0 Phyllis Hall ProgramDirector 40.00 0.00 X 79626 0 0 Sabah Harris Board Secretary 4.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Steve Jones Board President 4.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Cesar Escalante Director 4.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Ralph Adam Chapuis Director 4.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Williard Davis Director 4.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Fred Lambert Board Treasurer 4.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Terry Banks Director 4.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 176987 0 false false false 0 627500 843287 107050 1470787 AHC prgrams 456461 456461 456461 25367 25367 0 0 0 0 0 0 918 240 678 678 0 1953293 456461 26045 779 779 25202 25202 0 0 176987 126227 21556 29204 0 651521 501671 97728 52122 0 93280 69855 13133 10292 65935 49377 9284 7274 0 1715 1063 652 23500 8658 11709 3133 0 38356 38356 0 131139 131139 1073 770 303 9577 2402 5849 1326 8368 2092 4184 2092 0 78228 25757 38026 14445 14660 8675 4147 1838 0 15577 6659 8918 27084 22209 3792 1083 0 32358 14561 14561 3236 26517 14584 11933 Program supplies 22833 22833 Meals & entertainment 20808 15333 4162 1313 Vehicle expenses 4695 4695 Inkind services expenses 4597 4597 6378 4157 2221 1481167 1063295 243240 174632 204653 239083 1412759 888099 0 438096 297783 0 0 0 6675 6555 14148 49938 2432326 77069 1288696 2355257 0 0 0 0 3000 3000 3368027 3839715 60990 36354 859417 827977 31985 85964 952392 950295 X 1161679 1733596 1253956 1155824 2415635 2889420 3368027 3839715 472126 1659 X false true X true false X 771657 718639 857849 1932982 1475384 5756511 0 0 771657 718639 857849 1932982 1475384 5756511 0 5756511 5227 13864 25367 44458 0 0 5800969 0.99230 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 2383797 54057 2329740 47529 22029 25500 1000 983 17 2355257 accrued wages 38400 Credit card payable 20245 Misc payables 1302 P/R tax payable 2907 Student Scholarship Fund 1104 Vacation pay 22006 85964 X X X false Mary Schmidt 75 El Vanada Road Redwood City CA 94062 Grant writing false 20256 Sira Anderson 3952 Harrison St 1201 Oakland CA 94611 Grant writing false 9100 Chris Nguyen 7 Manor Road Kentfield CA 94904 Grant writing false 9000 38356 true 0 0 Educational assistance 39 25202 X 1 102453 Market value Inkind labor 4597 Market value false false false Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 2 Amana Harris is the mother of Sabah Harris.
