Please have patience.. it's worth it

Our Mission:

We believe in the transformative power of the arts to uplift and inspire. Our mission is to raise the overlooked and foster creativity in poverty-stricken neighborhoods.

The Impact

We are proud to make a tangible difference in the lives of marginalized youth. With minimal overhead, we strive to ensure that 75 to 80% of funds raised go directly to those in need. Through diverse arts programs encompassing writing, plays, and visual arts, we aim to provide opportunities for self-expression and personal growth, ensuring that every child has the chance to discover their potential and thrive. We witness firsthand the transformative impact of creativity on young minds, empowering them to overcome adversity and envision a brighter future.

The Need

In underserved communities, access to arts education is often limited, leaving many children without opportunities for self-expression and personal development. We recognize this disparity and strive to fill the gap by providing accessible and inclusive arts programs to those who need them most. By focusing on creativity and empowerment, we aim to break the cycle of poverty and inspire positive change in our communities.

Our Story

Zenith Arts was founded by NBA player Zenith Canaan after his rookie year.

I want to translate my privilege into others like me. I want to raise the overlooked.

Witnessing the lack of resources and opportunities for children in poverty-stricken neighborhoods, Zenith was inspired to take action and create a charity dedicated to fostering creativity and resilience. Our journey is fueled by the belief that every child deserves the chance to thrive, regardless of their circumstances, and we remain committed to making a lasting impact in the lives of those we serve.
