ArtKidTeks is an innovative art and technology training program designed for youth in at-risk and underserved communities around Houston. This is the only project of its kind developed to teach youth how to use art and technology as tools for community development.

Technology Era
To utilize technology, an individual must first be able to:
Access a computer
Operate the computer
Utilize software, peripherals & communications

Many inner-city youth will not be able to compete in the global marketplace due to the systematic social and economic barriers that exist which prevent these youth from having access to technology.


Methods
With assistance from our community partners, MOCAH will provide access to computer technology and art training to at least 20 children and other neighborhood residents in the East-end community. Youth involved in the ArtKidTeks program will participate in two residencies where they will learn how to:

Outcomes
The conclusion of the residency program results in a community gathering and celebrating the achievements of the participants, artists, trainers and volunteers.

The residencies goals are to translate these diverse yet interrelated disciplines and the knowledge base into thoughtful educational and workforce practice.

This sound knowledge base constructs the foundation for the participants’ quest for learning and creativity not for just a few months, a semester or year but for the rest of their lives.
