ArtGivers' mission is to broaden as much as possible the privilege of living with original art. We acquire art through purchases and artist donations and give the art away to various audiences – from those who couldn't otherwise afford to buy art, to those who feel alienated from the art world, and more.

Believing in the power of the artistic process to build self-worth and develop empathy for our neighbors, Arts for All fosters community growth through accessible programming, service to our community of artists and teachers, through foundational arts engagement. We Lift.
