ABOUT US
Art for Aid is an organization with the goal of providing accessible art lessons to all children and doing good in our community. We provide virtual art classes in exchange for direct donations to charitable organizations. Over the summer, we raised $350 for BLM and COVID-19 relief. This school year, we are partnering with organizations nationwide to raise funds for grassroots movements and provide art lessons to children in low-income communities.

OUR CLASSES
Classes are tailored for students K-6th grade, and will be taught via 1 hour Zoom sessions. We seek to improve technique and creative thinking through our curriculum. Creative classes, intended for grades k-2, teach simple drawing skills and promote imagination, while sketch classes teach drawing skills for grades 3-6. The suggested course donation is any amount that is possible for you. If you have financial barriers that prevent you from making a donation, lessons will be provided to your child for free with no questions asked. The materials required are paper, colored pencils, pencils, eraser, and pencil sharpener. Our schedule (listed in Eastern Standard Time) is as follows:
