St. Louis ArtWorks St. Louis ArtWorks mission is to enrich the lives of the region's youth by providing art education,

Louis ArtWorks (SLAW) is a year-round job training program using art to teach essential life and job skills to underserved youth, ages 14-19. Programming takes place after school and on weekends during the fall and spring, and five hours a day, five days a week for six weeks during the summer. Youth apprentice with professional artists to develop art, life, and communication skills. All apprentice

works of art are either commissioned by local companies and organizations, or sold at public sales. Each program combines in-depth art instruction, employment training, and life skills focused on personal health, fiscal literacy, and environmental stewardship. In all programs, teens earn a stipend, are required to have a bank account, and attend financial literacy training. Activities such as client meetings, open house events, and public sales give apprentices a chance to practice presentation and public speaking skills, and leave better prepared for the future with community contacts, resumes, and a portfolio of work.

On May 16, 2026, we will mark the first anniversary of the devastating tornado that struck St. Louis. We were fortunate to open our doors as a resource center for 15 days during that challenging time. While we served the community, the community also supported us.

We would be honored if you could join us in writing your inspirational words on tiles to be shared with those impacted by the tornado.

With over "100 years of providing innovation, performance, and reliability...", this spring, ArchKey Solutions commissioned St. Louis ArtWorks to create artwork for their executive offices. ArchKey, headquartered in Fenton, employs over 8,000 people in our region and more than 18,000 nationwide. They had numerous options to enhance their office, but they chose to invest in our youth. When you commission us, you are funding more than art.

The mission of St. Louis ArtWorks is to enrich the lives of youth by providing art education, essential job skill training, and exposure to career opportunities through paid apprenticeships. In our thirty years of operation, we have served over 7,000 youth from our region. We are thankful to those who believe in us, and we look forward to encouraging more organizations, businesses, and community members to support our youth.
