My Project

Our little artists LOVE to create! One thing that many students love to do is to use their hands. Beyond just drawing, they're excited to sculpt with clay, carve their own printing plates, and paint. However, art supplies are used up quickly with so many children making art each day.

By donating to this project, you'll be gifting the magic of art to 750 students; you'll not only give them high-quality supplies, but you'll also support them in having a creative space and outlet at school to explore their culture, interests, and more.

We do special projects exploring their own cultures and others in partnership with their homeroom teachers and with the Chinatown neighborhood each year.

Thank you so much for your support!
