At Arts @ Large, we dream about a world where we are no longer needed — a world where all people, particularly youth, will have equitable access to the arts. Every day we confront the reality that 54% of Milwaukee County youth are not enrolled in visual, music, dance, or theater arts instruction as part of their education.
