What we do...
Fresh Artists has a simple but unique model that includes children directly in the cycle of sustainable philanthropy. Fresh Artists delivers art supplies directly to art teachers in under resourced public schools.
We directly address:
- Saving art making for children in public schools.
- Helping children give back to their own communities.
- Engaging corporate support of public education.
- Creating a sustainable funding stream.
- Giving corporate partners something they need: beautiful art for their offices.
- Honoring students' artistic achievement & the teachers who teach them.
- Exhibiting vibrant children's artwork in highly visible spaces.
How it works...
- Fresh Artists selects artwork created by children in K-12 public schools. The young artists donate the use of their selected images to raise funds for art supplies for children in their community.
- Selected student art is photographed, original artwork returns to the student and donors choose high-quality reproductions to display in their offices and facilities.
- Art teachers apply to Fresh Artists for help, and money raised is used to purchase and deliver art supplies directly to art teachers in the most under-resourced public schools.
Why it works...
Businesses need attractive and affordable artwork on their walls.
Fresh Artists provides art that is not only beautiful, but also inspirational, meaningful and helps to save art making in public schools throughout the inner city.
What People Are Saying
- As the arts have increasingly taken a backseat in our culture it is an absolute pleasure to see the rise of an organization like
Fresh Artists
which not only encourages children to create artwork, but also constructs a vehicle for public school art teachers to receive funding and supplies to help foster a new generation of creative thinkers.more... - Heather Gibson
