Kids love sketchbooks too!


november 10, 2011
Thank you, dear adult students at my recent workshop at the Learning & Art Expo in Pasadena. When I mentioned the after school art program that I created and teach, Mundo Lindo, and that I'd love to buy some Strathmore Visual Journals for the kids. Many, in the class, donated some money and I bought 23 journals for the kids, and gave them to the kids on Thursday. You can see by these photos, the kids were thrilled!

With such a large class, your donation is very appreciated. The classes and materials for Mundo Lindo are free for the kids. And we're hosted by a non-profit, so your donations are tax deductible. You can donate here.

  4. Awesome story! A middle school teacher, I run an afterschool scrapbooking club as part of a federal grant program, and recently I purchased some blank chipboard mini-books from the $1 aisle at Michaels', which I then gave to each child. The kids love having their own place to create and display their art, and it's so fun to see them try new things and experiment within the pages of these little books!

  5. How kind of you to show us the follow up! I was one of the donators in the class, and I was so impressed with your enthusiasm for teaching those kids that I was happy to help out.
