HeARTistas is a group of volunteers whose purpose is to provide art experiences and resources for local children and youth under the age of 18 years.
Art experiences are the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination. We desire to create experiences for youth that they may create works that are appreciated for their creativity and emotional power.
Prominent examples of the arts include: visual arts (including architecture, ceramics, drawing, filmmaking, painting, photography, and sculpting) literary arts (including fiction, drama, poetry, and prose) performing arts (including dance, music, and theatre).
Our fiscal partners, The Milton Freewater Chamber Downtown Alliance will collect and distribute all monies related to these non profit endeavors.
Our current Chairpersons are; Jacque Barthel Fox and Emily Holden.
