Abstract

In this article we analyze experiences of artistic socialization of young people from working classes, who invested in training and professionalization in the arts world. We discuss the socializing roles of the neighborhood, the church, the media, and sociocultural projects for the artist's training. The work is based in the sociological literature on youth, socialization and artistic professions. The analysis focuses on the experiences of nine young people who have completed vocational training and become workers in Music, Dance, Video and Photography, in Salvador, Bahia. The results point to the importance of new socializing contexts to construct art worlds, less elitist and open. Participants in the research show that even in the face of uncertain horizons for youth, they still want and work to convert dreams into professional projects or subsistence arts.
