Begin to Build a Relationship
We know you care about where your money goes and how it is used. Connect with this organization’s leadership in order to begin to build this important relationship. Your email will be sent directly to this organization’s Director of Development and/or Executive Director.
Art, it can express how you feel and express to everyone things that I like and that I care about. You don’t have to worry… you can just relax your head and paint whatever you like.
Bringing Three Years of Arts Education to San Rafael Students
Youth in Arts is asking for $65,000 to expand a partnership they recently developed with San Rafael City Schools to provide a total of 30 weeks of arts education with a professional teaching artist (in visual arts, music, or dance) once a week for three years.
Over the past few years, despite the challenges of the pandemic, Youth in Arts has expanded even more, with a goal of creating sustainability. The partnership emerged out of this thinking, and they created a multisource funding model that will distribute resources equitably.
