Children's After School Arts (CASA)

CASA is an independent, nonprofit, creative arts after school program with an emphasis on social justice and social emotional development. Our diverse team of artist/educators are dedicated to guiding San Francisco youth towards open expression, expansive hearts and questioning minds.

We provide creative arts instruction to elementary and middle schoolers in a radical and inspiring environment. CASA teachers encourage positive connections and community building. We focus on relationships and communication and work daily on peaceful conflict resolution using restorative practices.

Our students graduate with an expanded understanding of creative expression and a drive to be better human beings.
