Holiday Kids and Crayons

the problem:

Education in the arts is sadly lacking at all levels, but especially for younger children who may not have the initiative to participate in them on their own.

why it's important:

The arts are an integral part of education, especial early childhood education, that are often neglected. We hope to provide an otherwise unavailable opportunity to local children.

the plan of action:

We want to sponsor a seasonal program that will expose children to different types of crafts.

how you can get involved:

Other teen artists can volunteer to come work with the children. Adults artists are encouraged to come and give the kids someone to look up to - act as a role model. Other adults who want to help can donate supplies.
