“Something I’ve learned about being an Activista is the power of community. It’s nice to have a community that loves and supports you no matter what. Communities don’t need a leader to be strong, they can be strong on their own.”

Artivism Showcase
Join Powerful Voices and Arte Noire on Saturday, November 15th for the third annual ARTivism Showcase, a pop-up exhibition and curated community arts experience centering BIPOC girls & gender expansive youth! With the guidance of three amazing teaching artists, the ARTivists, a cohort of rising BIPOC girls and gender expansive youth artists, have been exploring the intersections of arts and activism through multiple media: beading, fabric dyeing and quilting, and kintsugi mosaics. In addition to the exhibit, we'll have interactive art workshops exploring each of these media alongside music, food, artist talks, community-building opportunities, and more! As always, this event is completely free of cost!
Volunteer
Volunteer with us! We’re looking for volunteers to support with our upcoming Artivism Showcase! Volunteering is a great way to build connections, support BIPOC youth in your community in meaningful ways, and practice care & community in a world that tries to make us feel hopeless. Whether you've volunteered with us many times or have never been to a PV event, we would love to have you!

Healing Justice Initiative
Powerful Voices’ Taking Root Healing Justice initiative was created in response to the mental health crisis that BIPOC girls and gender expansive youth are experiencing in our communities. This initiative is designed to support BIPOC youth, their families, and the phenomenal youth advocates experiencing burnout and vicarious trauma.
We are all in need of care, rest and a radical reimagining of healing.
