Our Story
"Liberty Is Wobbly"
"Keith Haring was drawing the outline of the banner that 1000 of us were coming to fill in our thoughts and suddenly we said...
​
'Yo Keith…. the arm goes the other way !! Did you make a mistake?'
Keith said 'NA, that's ok …Liberty is wobbly!'"
Now, more than ever, we need our voices heard as we heal democracy and liberty through our shared stories.

The citykids foundation
A new step forward
After 36+ years of local NYC programming aimed at empowering youth through the arts, the CityKids Foundation is expanding its innovative cultural programs by launching a new roadmap, focused on young people's wellbeing through deep connection and aimed at teaching them the power of the new economy and NFTs for social activism and self-empowerment. The CityKids Foundation will build a global community that will drive new NFT art projects in collaboration with established and emerging artists around issues of concern to youth, such as mental health, social justice, climate change, and racial equity.
