But first, take a look at what our amazing parents created tonight!

Happy First Day of School!

And just like that… we’re back! 🍎

We’re kicking off the new school year with our first project, “Amazing Trees of Color,” a fun interpretation of the color wheel where we’ll paint a rainbow of leaves to create our very own color wheel!

Want to see how we bring this colorful project to life in the classroom for your child? Check out our upcoming training.

We’re also proud to be celebrating our 23rd year of partnering with Peninsula School District! ❤️ What an amazing journey of creativity, collaboration, and connection.

We're feeling so grateful as we kick off our summer planning!

A huge thank you to the MJF Foundation and the Anne E. Sambataro Memorial Fund for your incredible generosity and support. Because of you, we're getting ready for another wonderful year of hands-on art experiences for thousands of students in our school district.

We can't wait to start the school year with our first project, "Amazing Trees of Color," where students will create beautiful tree-inspired color wheels using acrylic paints! 🌳🌈

Thank you for believing in our mission and helping us bring creativity, confidence, and the joy of art to so many young artists. We couldn't do it without you! ❤️

A huge thank you to Pioneer Elementary VPO for your incredible generosity and support of Peninsula Hands On Art this year!

Art is such an important part of a child’s education. It encourages creativity, builds confidence, inspires self-expression, and helps students see the world in new ways. Because of your continued support, all our students have had meaningful opportunities to create, explore, and grow through art all year long.

We still have plenty of time to complete our last project this year, "The Will to Quill." Ask your students to show your their new quilling skills!
