30 Years of Art, Apprentices, and Impact

This summer, 1001 Colors celebrates 30 years of its iconic Youth Apprentice Program, empowering teens and young adults to earn Cincinnati’s living wage while creating vibrant public art with professional artists. From downtown murals to tributes honoring the Tuskegee Airmen, 100+ apprentices are shaping the city’s visual landscape — one brushstroke at a time. The name change to 1001 Colors symbolizes their expanded mission: embracing diverse voices and creativity while staying true to their roots. With summer spots full, they’re now seeking fall apprentices for a BLINK project — if you’re 14-21 and love art, don’t miss out. This isn’t just about murals — it’s about building futures, one colorful project at a time. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
