In 2022, the fusion of KNVS (pronounced canvas) House and Healthy Hood was manifested. While both organizations held missions of positive influence on their communities, their tools to execute this task was where they had slightly differed. KNVS House approaches their goal of community healing with the outlet of creative expression, guiding the youth and adults alike, toward their personal liberation through artistic articulation.

KNVS offers programming for entrepreneurs of all kinds but focuses on bridging the gap between Chicago’s creative community members and potential resources. These resources include but are not limited to, Music Recording Studio, Stage Presence & Crowd Engagement workshops, Branding & Marketing workshops, Dance Studio and most importantly, opportunities to interact face to face with a POSITIVE COMMUNITY. We’ve all heard that Chicago is the city with “no love,” in the arts communities, KNVS is here to change that narrative.
