   "Venice Arts has provided invaluable guidance in designing and refining our Foundation's youth photography programme. Their process is to listen to and learn from local teaching artists, engaging as peers in the train-the-trainer process." Jean Miao, Director of Operations, The Robert H.K. Ho Family Foundation, Hong Kong, China

Venice Arts brings two decades of experience to its consulting work with nonprofit organizations, foundations, and individuals interested in our Art Mentoring model and participant-media projects and training. Our skilled team of consultants, artists, and educators personalize their approach to assure a rich experience. Services include consultation on media-based program development; training in photography, filmmaking, and/or multimedia—with an emphasis on the collaborative and participant approach—for NGOs, educators, and teaching artists; curriculum development; and the implementation of participant-produced photography, film, and multimedia projects.

    "Venice Arts has been a real partner...creatively linking diverse communities through its programs. We are very pleased to support them in sharing their expertise with others." Cassandra Malry, California Consumer Protection Foundation
