Save the Arts Campaign

2017 Silver Student ADDY Award

Save the Arts is an advertisement campaign created to promote art in schools.  Schools are getting away from teaching art, which can cause students to be stressed and distracted in class.  Students who are not given the opportunity to explore their creative side often struggle on standardized tests. It is proven that art helps combat this issue.  Americans for the Arts would be the organization that would promote this campaign.  The main target audience would be focused on kids, especially at the Elementary school level.  But school administration and parents play a big part by encouraging them to be kids and use their imagination. 

These mugs are part of a school fundraiser that allow kids to create a drawing which would be put on mugs for the children’s parents to cherish. 

Similar to the mug fundraiser, the children’s drawings are sent in and made into a calander.  This is the perfect way for parents to keep track of their busy schedules while seeing the great imagination of their kids.

This Interactive Children’s Coloring Sheet was designed so that kids can draw what makes them human.  It can be a self portrait, or they can use their imagination.  

Thanks to the kids at Ketterlinus Elementary School for the drawings.
