impact REPORT | Art with Schools
Every year, our Art with Schools programs provide over 30,000 experiences that encourage artistic expression and purposeful creativity for students in our region. This year, we took that wide experience and made it deeper, using those experiences to connect students and teachers to each other and the world around them.
In this climate of uncertainty, we are certain that investing in art and creativity will yield the next generation of artists and innovators prepared to make the world better for us all.
