About JCT International

Origins
Built Across Borders
JCT International is the public-facing institutional brand of Fundación Jóvenes con Talento, an organization founded in Colombia in 2008 with a vision to help young people and communities thrive through creativity, learning, and opportunity.
Over time, that vision expanded into a broader model of arts education, community development, and creative partnership. In 2019, the organization established roots in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, bringing its bilingual identity and cross-cultural experience to schools, neighborhoods, nonprofits, businesses, and public institutions.
Art can open doors, strengthen communities, and create lasting opportunities when it is connected to real people and real places.
JCT International
Today, JCT International continues to serve as a trusted creative nonprofit partner—designing programs, producing public art, publishing educational media, and creating spaces where youth, families, artists, and institutions can work together toward meaningful change.
