Back To School: Art Kits
AHC knows that it takes imagination to change the world, and that art is a powerful tool to help young people develop self-awareness and compassion. As schools are beginning to host classes in-person, Art Kits are an important part of the ‘Back To School’ season. Each kit contains everything a student needs to stay creative - art supplies, printed activity guides developed by educators and information about additional online resources.
AHC provides arts education to some of the most underserved communities in Oakland, with 90% of students coming from socioeconomically disadvantaged backgrounds. The Art Kit program fills the gap, providing supplies and curriculum to students who would not ordinarily have access to arts education. Click here to support our Art Kit Program.
Let’s Stay Creative! Art Kit Drive
Covid 19 is impacting our cities in unimaginable ways. Attitudinal Healing Connection (AHC) is teaming up with art organizations for an art kit drive to deliver supplies to children and youth in our most vulnerable populations.
Attitudinal Healing Connection (AHC), Museum of Children’s Art (MOCHA),
Vision Quilt and Junior Center of Art and Science are teaming up to show LOVE, and are continuing to inspire learning through creativity. Realizing that students may not return until the fall and Teaching Artists may be out of work for the remainder of the school year, we have identified some simple and unique ways to provide alternative options for children to access arts instruction.
Please help us with this immediate need to keep children and families engaged.
