Our Story

Hi there!
​
Whether you're a young artist interested in joining a supportive community or a passing spectator, I am grateful for your interest in Côteshin. ​
​
Our name, Côteshin, derives from the French noun "côte" translated into "side". Along with this name, Côteshin aims to create a community of artists who stand "side by side" in their communities and within our Coteshin community.
Our vision for Coteshin entails a platform where young artists can support each other through the struggles of artistic pursuit and inspire each other by sharing ideas that can tangibly change communities.
We see communities as our immediate schools, neighborhoods, and even beyond where we feel connected. As a team, we're dedicated to helping young artists realize the value of creative pursuit and proliferating/leveraging artistic passion to create positive social change. Thank you for being so interested, and I hope you will consider joining our community!
