Support Our Spring Appeal
Help Kids Experience the Joy of Art
At Artistree, our summer camp program is a cornerstone of our mission to bring accessible creative experiences to our community. Arts camps provide children with the opportunity to grow, learn, and express themselves in new and exciting ways. However, not all children can afford to attend summer camp, and that's where Artistree’s scholarship program makes a significant difference.
Why Your Support Matters
As someone who recognizes the profound impact that the arts can have on young minds, you understand how crucial camp scholarships are. This spring, we are reaching out to ask for your help in ensuring that every child has the chance to participate in our art programs, regardless of their financial situation.
Last summer, Artistree offered 78 scholarships to children for our performing arts and visual arts camps. This year, we are excited to offer 60 summer camps and aim to significantly increase the number of scholarships we provide. With your support, we can make this goal a reality.
The Power of Your Donation
By making a gift to Artistree, you join a community of generous donors who believe that art is more than just drawing, painting, or singing. Art helps kids perform better in school, boosts their self-confidence, and enhances their social skills. When you donate to Artistree, you give children the chance to learn and grow through art, experiencing its transformative power firsthand.
Consider the words of an anonymous parent who benefited from our scholarship program:
"Last summer we decided to apply for a scholarship because everything became expensive. The fact that Artistree is offering scholarships means that you have classes that are meant for everyone in the community, not just people who can afford it. The scholarship helped our family not have to decide between [our child’s] mental health and chronic condition…and enrichment and furthering his education."
How to Donate
Your contribution can inspire creativity, ignite imaginations, and change lives. Together, we can ensure that every child has the opportunity to feel the joy and empowerment that comes from engaging with the arts.
