Kasmin, in collaboration with Artsy, is proud to present the second annual online auction in support of Artistic Noise, a Harlem-based nonprofit that creates artistic, entrepreneurial, and therapeutic experiences for young people whose lives have been impacted by the juvenile court system, foster care system, mental health care system, and more. Artistic Noise’s programming supports their community of young artists across a variety of needs and creates a safe and celebratory space where the system-impacted young people can be seen, heard, and supported on their pathways to adulthood.

For over 20 years, Artistic Noise has created art in collaboration with thousands of young people who are incarcerated, on probation, in foster care, unhoused, or otherwise impacted by the juvenile court system. Through a variety of free programs and paid positions for teens and young adults, Artistic Noise strives to enhance people’s lives through the empowering and therapeutic potential of art making.
