Amira Yamaguchi - Artist
Description
Welcome to Season 3 of the AFTS Podcast series!
We are privileged to open Season 3
with artist Amira Yamaguchi. The experience she gained and connections she made
while at Art From the Streets has given her the confidence and skills she needs
to blaze a path to a career as a working artist.
Art from the Streets is a nonprofit based in Austin, Texas. The mission of AFTS is to provide a safe and encouraging environment in which the positive spirit and creativity for those experiencing homelessness are nurtured through their own artistic expression because focusing on housing alone does not achieve other equally important goals that are relevant and motivating to improving and sustaining a quality of life.
Original artwork is for sale in art shows throughout Austin, Texas. At these shows in the community the artist receives 95% of sales. Artists receive 60% of the final price of online artwork and merchandise sales. Shop online at Art from the Streets!
