An evening for the OSA Outreach Program : April 28, 2010

The OSA Outreach Program is dedicated to providing free, community-based visual art classes to children and youth who face difficult economic or social circumstances, and have limited access to the many benefits of a structured creative environment.

We would like to thank everyone who participated to our 2010 fundraiser. Your support is essential in helping us do what we do best: Teaching art to everyone!

We hope to see you again next year at the OSA's 2011 Annual Fundraiser!

 

The OSA makes a tremendous impact on our local community through a variety of programming, including:

• Free access to our many gallery spaces that display a wide range of media from local, national, and international artists to excite and inspire the viewer.

• Community outreach that offers free art classes in low-income neighborhoods to at-risk children and youth, building confidence and self-esteem.

• Bursaries to people of all ages requiring financial assistance who are looking for a new skill and an artistic outlet, offering them a new path in life.
