Part 2: The prompt 🖌️🫶

We shared one creative prompt with artists from all over the country. Their creations are proof of what we try to emphasize in all of our programs with kids: each and every one of us has a unique creative voice worth sharing.

This year’s Create Fearlessly prompt asked:
What still makes you wonder?🌱🌞

On October 8, we’ll reveal how this incredible group of artists answered that question when the 2026 Create Fearlessly gallery and auction go live.

Until then, we want to hear from you: What still makes you wonder?!

Pt. 1: Create Fearlessly is back! 💙

Mark your calendars for October 8, when the 2026 gallery and auction go live.

More than 100 artists responded to our open call. Just over 20 were selected. One shared prompt inspired more than 20 completely different works of art.

We can’t wait for you to see what they created!

Follow along as we reveal this year’s prompt, introduce you to the artists, and share a first look at the collection.

We’re so excited to share some images (and an adorable video at the end!) from our volunteer day with Broadridge! Thanks to their team and sponsorship, it was a truly full-circle experience of creativity. 🎨💙

A few weeks ago, Broadridge employees came together to assemble 120 Give Kids Art Kits. That same afternoon, a group of volunteers took the experience one step further, joining us at Hudson Guild in New York City for two hands-on art workshops with young artists.

Together, we explored The Colors of My Heart, giving kids the freedom to express themselves through color, line, shape, and pattern—with no right answer and no prescribed final product. The day ended with a beautiful “Heart Gallery” celebrating every child’s unique perspective. ❤️

The best part? The volunteers who packed the Art Kits that morning got to hand them directly to the children they were supporting that very same day.

With every Art Kit, a young artist at Hudson Guild received the tools and encouragement to keep creating fearlessly long after the workshop ended.

Thank you, Broadridge, for helping us make creativity more accessible and for showing what a meaningful corporate partnership can look like. We’re so grateful to create alongside you! ✨

Children’s creativity is boundless. 🩵✨ We asked artists across the country one question: what makes you say “wow”? Their answers became Create Fearlessly Kids: Vol. 1 — The “Wow” Issue — a collection of 32 young artists, ages 1–17, from 14 states.🌎

The collection features 32 unique perspectives, from family portraits to rare animals. 🐠

If you’d like to take the gallery home with you, our first ever Create Fearlessly Printed Collection is currently available to order. Bring a little childlike wonder home with you while they’re still available. 🔗

Young artists have just one more week to submit their artwork to Create Fearlessly Kids!

Submitted artwork will be featured in our online kids’ gallery and the very first Create Fearlessly zine—a collection made entirely from art by young creators! 📖🌟

Whether you’re a parent, camp counselor, teacher, babysitter, or simply spending time with a young artist this summer, Create Fearlessly Kids is the perfect free activity to help you bond, create together, and build their creative confidence. Plus, you can order a copy of the zine for a special keepsake of their creativity! 🎨💛

We can’t wait to celebrate the creativity, curiosity, and unique perspectives that make every young artist shine.

Submissions are now open through July 26. Link in bio. 💛

Hope everyone had a fun and safe Fourth of July weekend! 🎆

Before the holiday, we asked our artists a simple question: What if you were a firework? 🎇

Using colors, patterns, and their imaginations, they created fireworks that reflected their personalities, feelings, and favorite things. Along the way, repetitive drawing offered a calming, mindful moment. Art can be a wonderful way to celebrate and check in with ourselves at the same time. 😊

Every firework was completely unique, just like the artist who made it. 💛✨
