ARTSY FARTSY ART SPACE

A Vision for Kent's Creative Renaissance

For nearly a decade, Artsy Fartsy Art Lessons has been nurturing young artists in Kent, serving families desperate for creative education as art programs vanish from schools. Our studio operates at capacity with waiting lists, but rising rental costs threaten affordability while our single-classroom setup prevents us from welcoming local artists who want to teach alongside us.

We envision a permanent home with multiple classrooms where diverse art classes flourish simultaneously, local artists share their expertise, and a dedicated gallery showcases Kent's creative talent through rotating exhibitions. This space will expand our successful community outreach programs like "Mend It Mondays" and Third Thursday Art Nights, while offering low-cost after-school programs near local schools.

Your contribution toward our down payment builds more than walls—it creates a cultural hub where young minds discover their creative voices, families access affordable art education, and Kent reclaims its identity as an artistic destination. Every day in temporary spaces means turning away aspiring artists and limiting our impact. Help us ensure that when a child in Kent dreams of becoming an artist, they can begin that journey right in their own neighborhood.
