Art Bags for Kids

-- Art Bags For Kids is a new guerilla-based art therapy program that supplies art supplies to children who are limited to their homes due to illness or disability. The program's mission is to spread the fun of art by supplying deserving children with the tools to have fun, use their imagination and create art in their own time and space. The Hospice & Palliative Care of Cape Cod as well as Yale-New Haven Hospital will help to get the bags to the children. The children will have the opportunity to have their are displayed on the www.ArtBagsForKids.com art gallery.

Art Bags for Kids is an art therapy project that was created to bring the healing power of the arts to children who crave to do something creative with their spare time while either coping with an illness or disability, or who are not able to regularly interact with other children. The mission of the program is to help children enjoy art and interact with other kids by creating an interactive space to share their own creations and build confidence and healing through sharing. 

Created by artist Christine Frisbee of Osterville and New York, Art Bags will work with Hope Health, the hospice and palliative care program of Cape Cod to distribute the art bags. The children who do the art will have the ability to have their art on an online art gallery as well. You can contact the program by emailing Christine@frisbeefoundation.org.
