First Person Arts

Comment on Facebook

First Person Arts was founded in 2000 as Blue Sky by Vicki Solot, in response to the burgeoning interest in memoir and documentary art forms. Solot appreciated the resonance of real stories and recognized their value as a means of bridging cultural ethnic divides. First Person Arts produces the First Person Festival, the only festival of its kind dedicated to presenting multi-disciplinary works-of-art based on authentic, real-life experiences.
