My Project

Our scholars absolutely love art! Help me give my

scholars a paint party where we will explore and create works of art from our hearts.

We would like to have several guided art sessions where we would make art for our families and friends. With holidays and celebrations like Valentine’s Day and Black History Month coming up we would like to create memories that will last a lifetime. This will not only bring our scholars JOY but it will also allow them to explore their creativity. Help me give my scholars their very first Paint Party!
