Overview

Mission

Promoting the artistic development of underprivileged, disenfranchised or disabled school age children by providing them with opportunities for artistic expression, public dissemination of their artwork, financial educational support, and participation in cultural exchanges.

What it reported doing in 2011

The organization has partnered with several schools with over 200 students and provided over 1,500 hours of volunteer support. The volunteers work collaboratively with the schools' art teachers and therapists to create art projects that ultimately help develop the children's overal skills and abilities. The organization organizes "gallery shows" to showcase the children's art projects without cost to the schools. The goals of these exhibitions are to expose children to the arts and to raise public awareness about the importance of art-education for underprivileged children and for children with special needs.
