OUR PROGRAMS

Programming

We equip youth organizations with supplies, training, and a thorough Social Emotional Learning-based curriculum, making it easy to offer weekly art programming that inspires creativity, connection, and confidence, with none of the heavy lifting.

Workshops

Whether weekly programming isn’t possible or a special event calls for creativity, our one-time workshops offer an engaging, flexible way to spark self-expression and support social-emotional growth — often paired with take-home Art Kits.

Art Kits

Like a care package for a child’s creativity, our Art Kits are filled with brand-new art supplies that encourage creative freedom and exploration. Delivered in our signature blue bags, our Art Kits make it easy for kids to create fearlessly—anytime, anywhere.
