Blick Art Materials, in collaboration with The Dreaming Zebra Foundation, has named the VAPA Foundation as a Charitable Partner in its Blick Give and Get campaign. The not-for-profit VAPA Foundation enhances the quality of and access to arts education in the San Diego Unified School District through the VAPA Enhancement Program, honor concerts, recognitions, collaborations, and program development, where needed.

Blick’s retail location in Little Italy began collecting donations on November 27th and will continue through December 24th. During that period, each customer who purchases art materials for donation to the VAPA Foundation will receive an exclusive 20% off entire transaction coupon, valid on purchases made 12/26/20 - 1/6/21. Blick outlets will have donation bins as well as ample signage set up in-store, plus a wide variety of eMarketing over the next several weeks.

“We are honored to be named as a Charitable Partner by Blick Art Materials,” said Doreen Schonbrun, President of The VAPA Foundation. “Right now, there is a big need for art supplies, not only in our schools, but also in our students’ own homes. These donations will be life-changing for some of our students.”
