Hi there!

Ready for An Artventure?

ArtkidsUp invites your child into a joyful, guided world of artmaking—from their very first doodle to their proudest masterpiece.

Pop-up Art Classes

in local parks or courtyards

Art + Storytime

with books and drawing prompts

Paint with Coffee Workshop

A sensory exploration of natural pigments where kids use coffee to paint

Mobile Gallery Showcases

of student work

A Studio on Wheels

The Artventure Bus is a mobile art space designed to bring creative learning to neighborhoods, schools, festivals, and public parks. Inside, kids will find easels, drawing supplies, craft kits, and sometimes even a gallery of student work.

Not Every Child Can Come to the Studio. So We Bring the Studio to Them.

Art can change lives—but not everyone has access to art classes, materials, or creative mentors. The Artventure Bus helps close that gap by:

Serving rural or underserved areas

Creating art opportunities at public events

Making art feel fun, not intimidating

Building community through shared creativity

We're Getting Ready to Roll!

The Artventure Bus is no longer just a sketch—it’s becoming real. Right now, we’re in the process of outfitting the bus, designing workshops, and preparing our very first route.

But to bring it to life fully—and reach as many children as possible—we need your help.

Whether it’s five cities or fifty, this bus is meant to carry creativity, joy, and belonging wherever it goes.

Wherever we stop, we leave a little color behind.

Be Part of the Journey

We’re currently reaching out to sponsors, donors, and community partners to bring the Artventure Bus to life. Here’s how you can help:

Help cover the cost of a city visit

Partner with us

Host the bus at your school, park, or event

With your support, we can make art more accessible, more joyful, and more mobile.
