The Power of Art & Community
“I’m not very good at social activities, in-person things… Backstreet is one of the reasons I go out and do things and talk to people who don’t live with me.”
“I had all this just junk in my heart, and each painting was a little bit of that out… Having done that over five years, I’m probably as healthy as I’ve ever been. It’s because of art, but it’s specifically because of Backstreet.”
“I’ve always heard people say, ‘I feel part of something,’ and this is like one of the first times I’ve ever really felt part of. I feel unjudged, and it’s just a peaceful place for me. It’s my safe haven.”
