Transitional Living Center

  Professional artists and educator Kevin Lehman conducted a continuing art program at the Transitional Living Center in Lancaster City. This facility houses displaced persons, veterans, families, as they seek sustainable housing within our community. Bringing the arts to TLC is about improving our community by enabling residence to develop confidence through creativity and to express and communicate their ideas visually.
 

Everyone has the ability to be creative, in other words, the ability to develop unique solutions to problems, whether it is creating artwork or improving an individual’s personal situation. By making the TLC lobby a work of art in itself and displaying the finished artwork of residents, we beautify a space and at the same time bring awareness to the community about social issues that need to be addressed. TLC residents created this tile mosaic in late 2012 early 2013. This residency was supported in part by Millersville University: South Central PaARTners, an arts-in-education program supported by the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, a state agency

      Keys to the City

      The Kids at YIC designed and created a piano for Music For Everyone's Keys to the City Project.  Team leader, Carrie  King, explains the individual pianos  adorning the large piano reflect the  transient nature at YIC. We wanted  each resident to leave their mark. Not  wanting to risk residents  missing any part of the planning process, they were  each asked to  design their own individual piano, that were then collaged  together to  represent all the residents, and some YIC staff, that worked on the   piano.  These kids were incredibly respectful and receptive to this   project. A lot of them had seen previous pianos from years before and  were  really excited to be a part of the project. A lot of the kids and  staff enjoyed  playing the piano during our sessions. We liked to think  about thousands of  others in the community also getting to play it all  summer long. The group that  came up with the word "escape" for the top  of the piano said that  they wanted people to walk by and be drawn to  the piano. There they could  escape, through music, from any of the  worries of their day.


      Many thanks to:
      Music for  Everyone for  this wonderful opportunity.
      The North Museum for  sponsoring this project.

      “The Miracles Mural"

      “The Miracles Mural,” Dedicated to  the Residents of the Lancaster County Youth Intervention Center July 15, 2010.  Designed, created and painted  by the residents of the LCYIC

      Personal reflections from YIC

      "The jewelry making  was pretty awesome. I learned to do something I  never thought I could. I'm  definitely going to do it again. Please come  back and teach us to paint!"

      "I never like to  participate in programs at YIC, today was the first  time I did. Thank you for  helping me and encouraging me to try."

      "I greatly  appreciate you all taking the time to come in to do art with  us. It gives me a  chance to express my feelings and forget about what  is going on in my  life."

      "Keep up what  you're doing."
