WHAT WE’RE ABOUT

arts to ALL uses the Power of Play and Creativity to provide ALL children with arts enrichment opportunities in the greater Richmond area, including youth with socio-economic, physical, or emotional barriers to discovering the arts.

WHAT WE DO

Professional teaching artists work with school systems and community partners to build confidence in students and a better understanding of their authentic selves, while inspiring empathy, community, and the spirit of play in the everyday.

HOW IT WORKS

A portion of proceeds from ALL programming helps provide similar arts enrichment programming at under-resourced schools and with community partners.
