2026 marks three years of partnering with Bound Together.

Executive Director of Bound Together, Michele Wogeman says it best: "The opportunities that PCAC has afforded our kids at Bound Together - both in hands-on projects and center-based art appreciation experiences - have meant so much to their progress. It's also been crucial to their development as people: giving them the tools to interpret their own experiences, see, feel, and connect to the world in new ways, and confidently interact with art of all kinds... Thank you, Melinda, for believing in art and believing in our kids - and making that a winning combination."
