FLYSTART is an intervention/prevention organization that steers individuals away from institutionalized models.
The purpose of FLYSTART, is to create an artistic platform that allows community members to master the skills necessary to develop a sustainable life using ones natural talents and gifts. The Foundation wants to create the entrepreneurial spirt through mentorship, community support, and professional networking.
We offer incarcerated artists an artistic platform that will allow them to get their artistic visions out into the world helping them to become organized and active. Letting them know that they are not forgotten and that there are opportunities for them to advance in the artistic field when they come home.
We provide mentorship, financial literacy programs, and spaces that allow for artists to learn the power of investing their time, energy, and capital into themselves and their respective crafts.

At FLYSTART we believe that art is an essential part of healing, therapy, and rehabilitation. It is a pro social, positive, and transformative exercise and career. Much like the people that are incarcerated for significant parts of their lives, art and expression is overlooked and underrepresented. We would like to enable artists to create, and share their work and experiences in an effort to contribute their definitions of culture, beauty, and expression to the world. By providing a platform such as a gallery, web commerce, and hosting events, it allows these artists to gain recognition and to present their art to a wider audience.
FLYSTART hosts YOUTH ART CLUB, led and facilitated by the youth! Ages 7-16 come together to share work, create projects, network, and connect. We want the youth in our community to feel supported and to find the power, take initiative, take on leadership, and build strong foundations.
