OUR CAUSE
The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the financial capacity of many non-profit organizations and businesses across the globe. This includes Art Works Now, an organization that helps students in schools that do not have art education in Hyattsville, MD.
Art Works Now is on the brink of experiencing many tremendous financial losses and as a result, they have reduced full-time and contracted staff and have reduced their expenses in a number of ways during this difficult time. Still, they are working tirelessly to provide engaging arts learning programs and staying connected to our community while they are closed.
The Art Gallery Project is created in order to support the continuation of art education during this difficult time. Via selling student-made arts, we would like to empower Art Works Now to continue their amazing mission to support art creation among the youths!
Support Art creation during this difficult time!
Purchase our students’ art works! All proceeds will go to Art Works Now to enable their mission in teaching art technique, encouraging each student to “see” in their own way, and providing multiple opportunities to explore, express and demonstrate their vision.
