Testimonial from a Parent:Kids & Art presents wonderful programs forchildren affected by cancer. There is a way thatcancer attacks the whole family. Our childrensuffered through cancer: one got the treatments,the other became isolated. At workshops they wereable to work with artists to express themselveswordlessly and respond from their hearts. Later, theywent to an auction and their work raised money forthe cause. The whole experience was veryempowering and healing. Thank you so much forcreating this place for kids affected by cancer toshape their world.- Kate Mayer, Parent 8.
