ARTS TOUCHING LIVES ABOUT US FOUNDATIONS Our Founder and PresidentEsther Lovelaces journey began in a small town of Wiesbaden Germany. Born of an African American father stationed in the country in the military and a promiscuous single German native mother Esther was left in an orphanage abandon isolated and lonely until she was later reunited with her father with the assistance of his mother. One would assume the reunion would be joyous but it resulted in her being raised in a household scared by mental and physical abuse. As a means of escaping the disappointments and frustrations of her home life during her teen years she engulfed herself in the Arts engaging in such activities as modern dance and stage plays which became her passion.
