 "I had a great experience with Into Your Art.  There are a lot of diverse forms of art and the audience is very supportive and always give great feedback. My favorite part about these events are the spoken word mixed with the art gallery aspect, it adds great vibes to the room." -Sherwin Long 

"I was very excited but also very nervous as this was the first time I would be speaking in public, and talking about my art. I loved that I talked with the other artists, we shared ideas, and enjoyed listening to music and some dancing.  I am glad that I met and made all the connections that night.  I am truly grateful to IYA, thank you very much, you guys are the best! "-Maya Meen
