Another season of gift giving is almost upon us. This year we would like to invite you to give the gift of art to a young person in your life! A Young at ART bag provides a book telling of master artists and shows examples of their work. It provides a sketch pad, crayons, colored pencils, and markers. Help them to learn how these artists started and inspire them to create their own masterpieces! And the best part is--you will also be giving a gift to a child in need! Two for one gift giving!
A month or two ago, we took an afternoon and visited with some wonderful people. These people work each day in an environment where hurting children come for help. Some of these children hurt because they are sick. Some hurt because they have handicaps. Some have been hurt by others.
We went with the hope that we, in some small way, might be able to bring a touch of joy to some of these children. Maybe, in some small way, we could provide an escape from whatever pain they may be in. Providing an avenue for them to create their own art, might in some small way, inspire and encourage them.
What we found made us both happy and sad. Yes, there is a need and a desire for our little art bags! That makes us happy. But--there is more need than we could supply at one time. That made us sad to have so many children hurting.

So, dear friend, we would like to invite you to join us in a double gift giving adventure. With the purchase of a Young at ART bag, you can give a gift of art supplies and artist inspiration to someone you know and, at the same time, a child in need of encouragement will receive one also.
Bags can be purchased on our website at young-at-art.com for $25. If you have any questions, please feel free to email us at youngatart2015@gmail.com. May the upcoming holiday season be happy, creative, and fulfilling for us all!!
