  • Mission

    Paint It Forward hosts various art events to connect new artists and support those with special needs. By selling our volunteers' art on our website, we hope to raise $3000 to fund art supplies for a local K-12 special education school.

    About Us

    In our events, where we provide art materials, we make various forms of art, such as paintings and drawings. At the end of the events, volunteers donate their art to be sold on our website. Artwork is featured and promoted on our social media and exhibition events. All proceeds go to a local special education school to buy new art supplies, allowing students to non-verbally communicate emotions and aiding in cognitive development. Paint It Forward hopes to spread art to empower individuals who enjoy art as well as those who need extra support. Our art-making opportunities are open to new artists, people who enjoy art as a hobby, or high school students who want to make a difference.
