BECOMING A CATALYST
Join us in making a lasting impact!
Becoming a catalyst means playing an active role in expanding access to creativity and opportunity. You can support us by volunteering your time and skills, donating to enhance our art supplies, or partnering with us to close educational equity gaps.
Why provide free art lessons?
Many children from underserved communities don’t have access to quality art education. Private lessons are often expensive, and art programs are the first to be cut in schools.
We have expanded our programs to senior living communities as well, since older adults are another overlooked group who benefit greatly from creative engagement and connection through art.
At the Creative Catalyst Foundation, we believe everyone deserves the chance to explore their creativity, discover new interests, and build confidence through art.
Our free lessons are taught by passionate, award-winning high school volunteers who are eager to give back, share their skills, and earn community service hours while doing something meaningful. By offering these programs at no cost, we support families, strengthen communities, and help create a more equitable future.
The Creative Catalyst Foundation is a student-led nonprofit dedicated to providing free art education to underserved or overlooked communities.
Together, we can foster creativity, confidence, and personal growth in spaces that need it most. Help empower others to explore new experiences, discover their passions, and unlock their potential: one student at a time.
