THINK, INSPIRE, CREATE!
Hi, I'm Yowza the yeti. Everyone has a story, here is a little bit of ours.
When YETI Arts began, it was a community project conceived by a group of teachers, artists, and community activists. At that time we focused on working with youth and teaching them about animation. As years went by it grew into a publishing studio, where professional artists and educators could collaborate with youth to grow their ideas within a professional setting.
We here at YETI Arts believe anybody can make their mark in story telling. We use professional teacher practices and provide teacher resources that are dedicated to the legacy of arts engagement, entertainment, and education.
