The Art for Aid Project is organizing an ART SUPPLY DRIVE, from Ottawa to Perth of NEW and GENTLY USED art supplies. See website ARTFORAID.CA for more info. Drive runs July 29 to Aug 19 for the next shipment going to Indigenous schools.
Or visit ARTFORAIDSHOP.CA to purchase artwork in support of the Art for Aid Project, a program of I Love First Peoples, which is a Canadian Registered Charity. Artwork features Governor General of Canada Sovereign’s Medal for Volunteering recipient, artist Colleen Gray, who received the award for her role in supporting art exploration through access to art supplies and creative art programs in Canadian remote Indigenous schools through founding and running the Art for Aid Project.
