Support Our Children's Art Camps: A Creative Future for Every Child

Unlocking Creativity, Expanding Opportunities

Art has the power to inspire, heal, and transform. At the Arlington Museum of Art (AMA), we are dedicated to providing every child in our community with the chance to explore their creative potential. This North Texas Giving Day, we aim to raise $25,000 to expand and support our Children's Art Camps, ensuring that even more children can experience the life-changing benefits of art education.

About Our Camps

Our Summer and Fall Art Camps are more than just seasonal activities—they are a gateway to creativity and self-expression. Designed for children of all backgrounds, these camps offer:

  • Exploration of various art forms and techniques: Our camps provide a wide range of artistic experiences, from painting and drawing to sculpture and mixed media.
  • Creative skill development: Through creative projects, campers learn not only art techniques but also critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
  • Building friendships and community: Our camps create a welcoming environment where children can make new friends and feel part of a creative community.
  • Confidence and self-expression: Through art, children gain confidence in their abilities and learn to express themselves in new and meaningful ways.

Our Impact

In our last Summer Camp, we were proud to provide scholarships to over 600 students from various school districts, many of whom could only attend thanks to this crucial financial assistance. This year, we hope to reach even more children by expanding our outreach to additional districts, ensuring that every child who wishes to participate has the opportunity to experience the joy of art.

  • Cost per Camper: $200
  • Total Fundraising Goal: $25,000
  • Children Sponsored: 125 (with the potential to reach more with additional support

Real Stories, Real Impact

Our camps have made a lasting impression on many young lives. One recent participant shared, 

“Art camp gave me the confidence to try new things and express myself in ways I never thought I could. I made new friends and learned so much about different types of art."
