A scene from Yes! And... Collaborative Arts.

Yes! And... Collaborative Arts (YACA) is a youth-centered organization dedicated to amplifying voices, nurturing agency, and creating community through performing arts experiences. We believe youth should have no barriers when discovering their unique perspectives because the future depends on compassionate, curious, and courageous leaders.

As educators, we practice and teach a different way of interacting with kids, with each other, and with the world. We believe that children learn best when they are given the opportunity to engage with one another, the classroom content, and their own ideas in the context of a safe, affirming, and specific environment.
