First Person Arts
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. With the involvement of a visionary
board, First Person Arts set out to support the development
of new memoir and documentary work and to create opportunities
for it to be seen and appreciated by many. In just four years,
First Person Arts has showcased the work of more than 100
artists nationwide; We have reached across cultures and communities
to attract a broad and diverse audience; and have played
an important role in exploring and celebrating the richness
of the mixed heritage and shared history of everyday Americans.
Our Mission:
First Person Arts transforms the drama of real life
into documentary art to foster appreciation for our unique
and shared experience.
