This past year was one of reconnection as classes resumed and community gathered again. Thanks to your donations, ArtSmart funded multiple grants for arts education initiatives which we are proud to feature in this newsletter. Our summer classes filled with students of all ages interested in honing their craft or wanting to try something new. Take a look at the new classes listed inside to see how you can get creative in the coming year. We would like to extend a big thank you to our donors, volunteers, and teaching artists dedicated to supporting arts education in the greater Trout Lake community!
– ArtSmart Trout Lake Committee 2021 could go down as a challenging year, but we like to think of it as a year that opened up endless possibilities for “thinking outside the box”. With the opportunity for folks to gather outdoors, ArtSmart was able to put our creative minds together to collaborate with teaching artists and community members to host a series of summer classes. Thanks to your donations, ArtSmart funded multiple grants for arts education initiatives. A busy Holiday Market in December proved that our community was looking
for handmade arts and crafts and ready to support our artists. We are so grateful for the ongoing support for the arts in the Trout Lake Community. – ArtSmart Trout Lake Committee Thank you, Trout Lake Community! Despite the difficulties, cancellations, and
disappointments of 2020, the Trout Lake community did what it does best—we got creative! We made music, danced in our living rooms, and experienced new realities through media and film. We designed and built things, took up woodworking, and painted everything in the house! It is the power of the imagination and “what could be” that gets us through these challenging times. This is why the arts are so valuable and why we must continue to provide arts programming for our community. Inside this newsletter, read about how your donations were put to work, from ukuleles to botanical illustration, making the first funding cycle for ArtSmart Trout Lake a success. Now is the time to harness that creativity for this year and donate to ArtSmart Trout Lake. Your donations go directly to providing grants and programming for our community. Students young and old can benefit from your donation. Together we can be a powerful voice for the arts. – ArtSmart Trout Lake Committee |
