Arts 4 Collective: Profile

Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistake. Art is knowing which ones to keep. - Scott Adams

The Arts 4 Collective was founded in early 2007 to support contemporary artists working in the East End of Long Island, New York. Comprised of a tightly-knit group of core members, as well as additional artists who participate on a revolving-door basis, Arts 4 has united artists of all kinds, including the Fine Arts, the Graphic Arts, Musicians, Designers, Craftsmen, Writers, Philosophers, Filmmakers, Thespians, Performers, Producers, and Inventors.

Conceived with the notion of furthering knowledge and with an enthusiasm for the creative processes, Arts 4 is essentially a group of artists working together: inspiring, teaching and helping each other to grow. Working collaboratively has allowed for the cross- combination of creative minds and disciplines, and for the cross-fertilization of ideas and approaches. Quite simply, the more knowledge, experience, resources, and innovation you have working in tandem,leads us to more possibilities and more open doors. We provide advocacy for artists of all kinds. We value the knowledge, creativity and unique experience each and every individual can bring to our collective whole.

However, the mission of Arts 4 is not limited within itself. Fostering an appreciation for the vital role that artists can play in our society, we aspire to get the pure joy of Art, in all its forms, out into our community and to people of all ages. The East End is such an amazing place to live, saturated with artists, art-enthusiasts, traditions and set precedents. We respect our community and treasure its support, striving to contribute and serve every chance that we get. The Arts 4 will provide a platform and sponsorship through which individual and groups may hold events and execute their ideas.
