“Everything around us is in some way, shape, or form, is art. There is an artist in every one of us and we all have the innate ability to create. Art allows our soul to express its happiness, pain, desires and goals through a healthy medium. When communities have the right tools, art saturates and impacts lives with positive influence and change. Let’s color the world with creativity, love, understanding and most importantly – opportunity. In the end, we’re all a part of the big picture.” -Autumn Pippenburg
