Art Program is an on going program for the Elementary students where local
volunteers teach art lessons. Each student will receive their own
sketchbook. The funding comes from your generous donations and grant writing. Of the monies raised to date, 85% have been from grants and 15% from local donations. Some grants need matching funds and without increasing support of area businesses and personal donations, we wouldn't be able to acquire some grants.
