Emerging Artist Cohort
Six talented Atlanta-area artists have been selected for Paint Love’s fourth Emerging Artist Cohort. The cohort will collaborate closely with Paint Love to develop a meaningful creative project, which they will bring to diverse groups of Atlanta youth across various ages connecting Atlanta talent to Atlanta youth. Throughout the process, participants will be trained in Paint Love’s trauma-informed model, learn new skills and receive expert guidance from Atlanta professionals on effectively engaging and creating deeper, more meaningful experiences for young people.
Applications for our fifth cohort will open in fall 2025.
Program Overview
Since our inception in 2014, Paint Love’s mission has been to partner with local artists to share their medium and expertise to bring extraordinary creative experiences to young people. The Cohort program builds on our years of experience training artists in our trauma-informed model to more fully empower artists in their journey as creatives, teachers, and leaders in our community.
Our cohort members also focus on elevating the “extraordinary” elements of arts education - bringing the magic and wonder of a memorable and meaningful experience that will resonate with students beyond their time in the classroom.
