Vision98 Studios is a collective
We are an agency hoping to connect creatives with creatives. Vision98 wants to create a network of young creatives of color looking to be hired or collaborate with other creatives of color. We will host exhibitions, residencies, and monthly events to influence new connections and opportunities for young creatives in
Los Angeles.
Vision98 Studios is a movement
We strongly believe in networking horizontally. We want this generation to look at the people beside them, and join together to accomplish one common goal, one common vision. We recognize there is so much talent and knowledge in the youth. We want to inspire and empower our generation to rely on each other to create the worlds we want to see. We want to carry this spirit on to an even younger generation, by creating a safe space to explore their creativity and ability to tell their own stories through the arts.
