MISSION STATEMENT
The Imagine Bus Project helps break the isolation many inner-city children face by introducing them to the wonders of art. The Project keeps kids off the streets, helps build their self-esteem, makes them better students, and contributes to healthier families in more creative communities.
PROGRAMS
The Imagine Bus Project partners with under-resourced programs serving low-income children and youth in San Francisco, Sonoma and Main counties to offer long-term sequential high quality art classes which are culturally sensitive and informative, engaging and expansive. At each site a lead artist and assistant conduct one-hour classes each week.
