Heart of Chaos inspires me to continue
to create and share my works with the world.

HOC has done so much for me! It's given
me an opportunity to meet and work with other artists and
participate in events with them. I've been able to show my
work to lots of people and make lots of new friends (and art
groupies)! I've been able to stretch my imagination and do
things I hadn't thought of before. The group is fun because
they're open to making any creative idea happen!

Heart of Chaos provided me with an open
environment to develop the tertiary skills I needed to become
a successful artist. I had been producing artwork for years
and years but never felt a connection to any kind of community
surrounding it. Then I went to a HOC live painting exhibit,
and they asked me if I was going to participate. I was taken
aback because most of the other art organizations I'd seen
to date were exclusive in the true sense of the word. HOC
is the opposite; they're very much inclusive. The barrier
to enter the Heart of Chaos community is low enough to be
accessible to everyone, no matter what your educational background
is, what zip code you live in, or what your aesthetic values
are. Now I definitely do feel a connection to an artist community.
I have new friends that I met through the organization that
may not have met otherwise. That's a real value for me, and
I very much appreciate their ongoing efforts to provide these
opportunities to people like me.

Heart of Chaos is a gem for every artist and community!!!
I've had the chance to curate art shows and teach fine art
at the Santa Clara Juvenile Hall. Being able to exhibit, engage
and network with other artists around the bay area has motivated
me to keep making art. It's great to know that there is an
organization in the bay area that is dedicated to their artists
and involvement with their community. The opportunities with
HOC are endless and I encourage anyone to be involved with
them.

Heart of Chaos has been a wonderful support system
for me as an artist. I appreciate a group of people willing to put
effort into supporting local and emerging artists. I have enjoyed
working with Heart of Chaos and giving back to communities even
if I don't live in them but just near them. Heart of Chaos has given
myself and my art buddy great art exposure. Thanks Heart of Chaos!

HOC has been a great benefit and helpful group
of people. The best benefit of being part of HOC is the shows they
provid the artist. Before I was looking to show my art in local
coffee shops etc. but was never able to find a place that suited
me. However HOC was able to provide that for me. Within a couple
of months HOC "Jen" was able to find me an opening to
show my art. Also, the people in HOC seem to be a great group knowledgeable
artists and support. They gave me advice on how to sell my work
as well as how to self promote it. Furthermore the support they
show their artists is a great importance in my opinion. I know I
havent been apart of the group that long, but so far they have been
a great deal of help.
