Happy New Year!

We want to thank you all for helping us end 2014 on such a positive note by supporting our Annual Campaign and sharing your good fortune with us. We know there are many choices to be made and many organizations in need, so we are especially proud to be chosen by you.  At the Art Center, every contribution makes an impact and goes directly toward supporting programs.

We are sincerely grateful to you all, and look forward to sharing this new year with you.

Featured Story: Parent Workshops

In addition to working with youth through our in-school and out of school programs, we also provide opportunities for parents to create beautiful artwork and learn art techniques that they can share with their children. The story dolls pictured here were made by parents at Jane Addams Elementary school.  Parents had the chance to roll up their sleeves and enjoy a creative challenge.  The dolls are made of a few basic materials which include cloth, yarn, some embellishments, and a lot of imagination.  Check out more pictures of these amazing dolls on our facebook page.
