“Art sounds like an unnecessary luxury.  Funding for it is commonly cut by states to meet a
budget.  But in so many of The Art Experience’s students’ cases, it is just that, an experience.  
One that creates growth, hope, and the ability to learn, not just art, but how to keep moving
forward in a world full of obstacles that hold the developmentally and physically disabled
back.”
Janet Darrington, support coordinator of Alex Olbrys, TAE participant.  
Thank you to all our
donors, sponsors,
volunteers and supporters.
The event was a great
success.

Katie was a dear friend to many, a
lifelong artist and art therapist, art
teacher, and co-founder of The Art
Experience, a nonprofit community art
studio in downtown Pontiac. Katie
touched many lives and will be greatly
missed.
Thank you Whole Foods for

Do you want your child to learn REAL art techniques and not just "arts and crafts" while having a
blast?  That's what my kids have gained through The Art Experience.  I simply can't recommend
The Art Experience ENOUGH!  My son started there at age 10 and is now 14.  He has produced
INCREDIBLE paintings, clay sculptures, batiks, and sketches.  The teachers are knowledgeable,
patient, helpful without interfering, kind and fun!  The Art Experience is a MUST!  ~ Sonja
Martinez, participant and mother of TAE students.
