The purpose of this project is to meet various creatives from Northeast Ohio and to expose our youth to the world of ingenuity. From Cleveland to Columbus, we will see art from different perspectives, learn the value of art and provide a sense of purpose.  In addition, this project will offer hope and encouragement for those impacted by COVID-19.  This new way of living has been a challenge with some added stress.  We will give our youth an outlet to do something creative, help alleviate stress, and give a new outlook on life, while having fun.

Now more than ever, it’s imperative for children to be creative.  The value of Art is essential and has the power to positively impact lives.  Unfortunately, art programs are one of the first programs to be cut due to lack of funding.   Local community and national programs are in constant jeopardy of being drastically cut or eliminated.  Our community events highlights the importance of the arts and creativity.  Here are some major benefits that art provides:

* Healing

* Exploration

* Expanded Imagination

* Reduced stress and anxiety

* Community and Family Unity

* Relaxation

* Expression

* Confidence

* Freedom

We will continue planting seeds of love, hope and creativity. Thank you for helping us Keep Art Alive.
