ArtCorps'  mission is to advance social change initiatives by promoting arts and culture as powerful tools to generate cooperative and sustainable work between development organizations and the communities they serve.

We send artists to Central America to work with environmental, health and human rights organizations. During one-year residencies, artists use every imaginable art form including theater, mime, puppetry, mural painting, sculpture and poetry to bring the organizations' environmental and social messages to life and engage the local community in their activities.

ArtCorps is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization.
