At DreamYard, Art is Action

Building artists, Building community, Building dreams to change the world.

Mission

DreamYard collaborates with Bronx youth, families and schools to build pathways to equity and opportunity through the arts.

Our vision is simple:

Vibrant communities are sustained and retained by the people who call that community home. This vision is intergenerational and equitable for all people. From youth to elders, leadership, access, and decision-making power are dispersed among a spectrum of identities within communities.
The values guiding our work are activate, create, connect, and nurture.
