the arton collection's photostream

I created this page to share photos about the company that I have started in Los Angeles. It's called The Arton Collection (Project.) I include the word "project" because from the start it has felt more like an ongoing inclusive project than just a start-up business.

In short, I screen print donated children's art onto environmentally friendly clothing to raise money for public school art programs and scholarships. 15% of all profits are donated to Americans for the Arts, a non profit dedicated to supporting and advancing arts education in America.

The arts have always been a big part of my life, the most important part of my life. It makes me so sad to think that soon young kids today may not have the same opportunities to be a part of the arts, to create, to be inspired, to develop their imaginations, and to express themselves. I believe that this project has the potential to really make a difference.

Here are some photos of the project...the product, the community, and the work that went into making an idea a reality.

Thanks for you support.
