Check our new website photo gallery. We will be adding new photos of current events, student work
and activities monthly.
The Memory Project is a unique initiative in which art students create portraits for children and teens
around the world who have been neglected, orphaned, or disadvantaged. Given that kids in such
situations tend to have few personal keepsakes, we're aiming to provide them with special memories
that capture a piece of their childhood - portable pieces of their personal history. As much as possible,
we also want to help the kids see themselves as works of art.
To do this, art students receive photos of kids on our waiting list and then work in any medium to
create the portraits (drawing, painting, digital art, collage, etc.). Next, we deliver the portraits to the
kids as gifts. We also take photos of the kids holding the portraits so the art students can see the
delivery in action. www.memoryproject.org
