Art of the Heist
An action-packed, heist-themed night of entertainment, culminating in a benefit auction featuring contemporary artworks by both Arts of Life artists and globally renowned artists.
Our art supplies needs have grown over the past year. We can no longer share supplies but provide each artist with an individual kit. $1,000 helps to cover the paints, canvases, and other supplies needed to support their art making.
Supports the staff time needed to cultivate and coordinate our partnerships with organizations like Art on the Mart and to recruit and collaborate with the talented volunteers who help implement our big projects.
Covers zoom for two months, ensuring that our artists can meet, collaborate, and network.
Helps to cover transportation costs for our artists, ensuring they can safely travel to and from the studio.
