Ag47 knows that girls’ creative voices must be heard.  We are an artistic mentorship collective dedicated to providing opportunities for bold creative expression.  Through collaboration and one-to-one mentorship, women and girls share stories about their lives, take risks, ask questions and use arts to respond.  By presenting their work to a public audience, Ag47 provides girls with the chance to be heard and their communities with the chance to listen.
