This three-week, Monday-Friday, 9 am-5 pm schedule of live, slide, and interactive video online learning successfully provided structured activities for students who worked “side-by-side” (both on and off-screen) with professionals in a variety of disciplines. This workshop/seminar, held on Google Meet, developed individual portfolios, and collaborative projects for exhibition. We are grateful to our sponsors, California Arts Council, and the Sam Mazza Foundation who have made it possible to attract such extraordinary presenters, students, volunteers, and teaching artists who made these three weeks so memorable. We look forward to seeing you at our upcoming online Opening Reception and we hope you will be able to see the actual exhibition.

I believe this kind of focus engaging kids in art and creation is priceless. I was lucky enough to meet Josefa and become involved with showing students how to draw and create with their imagination.”

Solidarity and Resources for
Black Lives Matter

At this moment in history I hope you will join me in supporting causes that strive to make this country a more just and humane place. My husband and I support the Southern Poverty Law Center, almost fifty years on the front lines. I invite you to join me in helping them with their invaluable work. To be sure, in any event, there are many other worthy organizations. Click on William Scott’s painting to find even more anti-racist organizations that could use your support.

“These past two decades have been hugely exciting for me, and the lives we’ve touched and things we’ve accomplished are deeply gratifying. To all of our teachers, volunteers, funders, and most of all, our hundreds of students, my profound gratitude. I am fortunate to continue to have all of you as part of ArtSeed and my life.” – Josefa Vaughan, Founding Executive Director
