Mission and programs · 2022
Mission
Create Now's mission is to empower youth and young adults through arts in multiple creative disciplines. Our programs introduce students to the power of the arts as well as learn valuable skills that lead to jobs and careers across multiple industries. We obtain all the resources necessary to provide quality programming to our participants.
Activities or mission (Part I)
Create Now provides youth with high-quality arts programs, enriching opportunities, and caring artists who often operate as mentors. We mainly focus on youth who are experiencing homelessness, in foster care, or experiencing other forms of challenges.
-
Cultural Journeys: Each year we take thousands of children (our students and program participants of partner agencies) to excursions such as, concerts, plays, circuses, museums, film studios tours. Many of these excursions are hosted by premier venues - Hollywood Bowl, Cirque du Soleil, Walt Disney Concert Hall, and LACMA. For many of these kids, it is their first experience of a live performance.
Expenses $6,300 · Revenue $6,300
-
Funded Programming - We provide comprehensive arts classes to students in Title 1 schools throughout the region. We work with LAUSD and charter systems to bring programming to students from Pre-K through 12th grade. Our school-based programs include music programs, graphic design, writing, visual arts, and so much more. These programs are offered to youth of all grade levels. Our programs are also seen in group homes, shelters, or other partnering facilities around the city.
Expenses $73,300 · Revenue $73,300
-
Community Projects & Events - Several times per year we bring together families for festivals and holiday celebrations. Our events feature opportunities to enjoy art and performances, games, food, and lasting gifts for all children. Recently we have launched annual creative career fairs that bring in talented individuals and companies such as Home Depot, Best Buy, and Dreamworks. We also arrange mural projects and talent shows in low income neighborhoods.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
