The Art Garage

The Art Garage provides art classes to public schools with high numbers of children qualifying for free or reduced lunches with little or no cost to families. Some of these programs are grant funded.

The Art Garage Community Engagement Programs (CEP) support creative expression within individuals and communities by providing art based workshops that heal, inspire and empower people who are underserved or with developmental, intellectual, mental or physical disabilities. The Art Garage has successfully collaborated with schools, disability organizations, behavioral health partners, residential treatment centers and day habilitation programs. Workshops are conducted in a safe and nonjudgmental environment on site at our studio or at a partner location, encouraging exploration and experimentation of art materials and the discovery of one's unique visual language with the intention of improving self esteem, identity and personal transformation through creative self expression.

The Art Garage helps schools provide enrichment to the school's students by providing high quality tuition based after school and summer art classes.

A limited number of scholarships are made available to students in on-site classes that demonstrate financial need.

The Art Garage enriches community events with fun and artful activities.
