Art Buddies Volunteer
October 2012 – January 2013
Art Buddies is a nonprofit organization that pairs creative mentors with kids from low-income families in Minneapolis. Mentors help the children discover their creative gifts, believe in themselves and dream big dreams. They create a fanciful costume, unique and more ambitious than they may have ever imagined, then celebrate that achievement in an exciting parade. artbuddies.org
