The Art Cars Program is a spin on our traditional Character Creation program, which we’ve been offering to Twin Cities schools for over 28 years.
Our mentors and students work together to create a one-of-a-kind 3D cardboard based on the child’s imagination and values — along the way, we spark imagination and build confidence. With the help and guidance from their creative mentors, kids build a foundation of confidence in art.
