Youth Programs
All Youth Programs Held At The Urban Art Gallery Are FREE For The Youth
Please contact for information
The Urban Art Gallery is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that is committed to providing Philadelphia youth with FREE multi-faceted arts and culture programs.
It is widely reported that children who are exposed to the arts are more likely to do well in every aspect of school and life in general. Our goal is to ensure that our youth are exposed to the arts and various cultural experiences so they will go on to live happier and more productive lives.

Below are some examples of the programs we're running but we are constantly adding new programs and new program partners. If you're interested in running a program with us, please send an email to Karl Morris at km@urban-artgallery.com.
