The 4 C’s are: To create, to communicate, to collaborate, to build community. These 4 C’s are at the core of all of our programming.

4C LAB Creative Residency programs provide multi-week culturally responsive arts immersion led by professional teaching artists with embedded California curriculum standards for Middle and High School students. 4C LAB Creative Residencies introduce the power of building community and creating positive social impact by sharing personal stories through art. The program includes workshops across various art forms including dance, theatre, poetry and multimedia, and culminate in a public performance.

The 4C coLAB performance ensemble brings together young creative visionaries, ages 15-20 who are committed to creating original work across art forms to create a global creative community to affect positive social impact. Through multi-disciplinary workshops, guest artists, mentorships and building an ensemble, the 4C co-LAB performs their collective work in an annual live show and various events. These young artists have opportunities to travel and collaborate with other Creative Visionaries across the nation and world.
4C Lab also offers professional development workshops for our community partners. The 4C LAB leadership staff lead workshops in creating anti-racist and culturally responsive practices in the Arts & Education, using creative strategies to engage students in virtual spaces during Covid-19.

CREATIVE COALITION is a platform and quarterly mixer enabling like-minded organizations, artists and creatives to partner, share best practices and resources and connect. Events include guest speakers, opportunities for creative inspiration and topic discussions to progress the work as a global creative community.
Finally, 4C Lab also offers creative consulting, providing best practices and producing creative events for organizations and individuals.
