Help us reach our 2024 goal of $30,000!

As many of you know, we moved in August 2022, and our new home has provided more room for creativity and our growing membership. Because of our expansion, our financial needs have increased and our fundraising goals this year are higher. We are particularly targeting recurring donations this North Texas Giving Day 2024 for greater financial stability.

In addition to our financial goals, we have the goal of growing our programs to include evening open studio hours once a week, including a new program for Veterans that started early this year, called Arts for Veterans, meeting three times a month.

The Art Room became more integrated in the Denton community in 2024 by supporting other organizations with public art projects, as well as our annual Community Art Project, where we give back to the Denton community by creating large-scale artworks that we donate to local nonprofits: 1000 Cranes for Peace, 2020; Roots and Branches, 2021; A New Day, 2022; Welcome Home, 2023; and currently we are working on our most ambitious project yet, Wonderful World, where we are decorating the new Health Services of North Texas Denton Pediatric Center, creating artworks for all 10 treatment rooms, hallways, and reception room, on the theme of animals and their biomes.

Continued needs included funding for the monthly costs of staff, rent, bills, and nonprofit corporate expenses, as well as to purchase a variety of art supplies, and promotional materials. We are also in need of storage shelving for supplies, and the means to create digital art, such as iPads.
