We've Reached the Halfway Mark!
I've missed seeing our students and artists these past months—and am excited to share Living Arts' newest video that brings to life the powerful role that our Teaching Artists play in Detroit's classrooms!
While schools and programs have been paused, our online campaign has provided Living Arts with the resources to find entirely new ways to connect with our students and bring them opportunities to create and feel good about themselves. They need experiences to release and explore their feelings more than ever and we are grateful to all of you who have donated and made Living Arts At Home possible!
It's been fun to see our students' faces on Zoom and share with you what they've been creating by using #LivingArtsAtHome through social media. We're committed to creating new content to keep Detroit's youth and families engaged in the arts throughout the summer—and we'll need your help to keep it going.
We're working now to reach the halfway point in our $200,0000 campaign by June 1st. If you have not yet given, I hope you'll consider a gift that will bring movement, music, drawing, and other art experiences to Detroit youth so that they can stay connected and process their challenging circumstances.
Finally, a special shout out to Matt Reznik at Mindfield for producing a video that speaks so beautifully to the role that Living Arts and our Teaching Artists play in the lives of our youth. Thank you, Matt!
I continue to be very grateful for your partnership and hope you will share Living Arts' video on social media to inspire others to support our work!
