Pave the Way to Creativity
In-kind donations and scholarships are an incredible way to support our after school program! TOSS offers need-based scholarships to students who attend TOSSafter (our after-school art studio). This program equips students with a wide range of artistic skills and creative thinking strategies. Monthly, we subsidized tuition for approximately 30 students. Our monthly operational costs are $10,000.
TOSS offers monthly art workshops in four public elementary schools. Program costs can range from $5-$20 per student and we serve over 1,000 students monthly.
Help us fund our next murals celebrating the stories of Burke County! Donations will go directly toward the cost of our program which trains emerging artists how to create participatory, community murals. Each mural costs approximately $34,000.
