Project Description

The overarching mission and watchwords for De Colores are simply “Peace through Music & Art”.
Further, our mission is to inspire and nurture youth, artists, culture-makers, and culture bearers through the use of education and the visual & performing arts to create positive change.
One way we want to do this is by helping our youth develop a cultural identity that comes through a shared history which combines their experience of life here in the U.S. with an awareness of their ancestral heritage… to let them know that cultural assimilation here is not mutually exclusive with deep pride in their roots.
We will advocate for social justice and promote harmony among diverse cultures through inclusivity, education and respect for all cultural traditions while embracing the ideal of a world of racial and economic equity.
We want to help create a community safe environment with resources to cultivate creativity.
We will collaborate with organizations in Ventura County and beyond that promote the De Colores philosophy of peace, culture, education and social justice through music and art… and share those benefits with our community.
