As a 501(c)3 organization, Art Power! relies on people like you who believe in the transforming power of art to improve lives. Through Legacy Endowments, Large Financial Gifts, Monthly Donation, or Art Technique Sponsorship, you can be a part of making their world a little better and a little kinder.

Never underestimate how good it feels to make something happen for someone else.
URGENT!! Our main fundraising focus right now is to raise $9000 to be able to hire a local National to help run the studio in Casa de la Creatividad. The Premier Foundation based in South Carolina, has generously agreed to MATCH any donation made to this fund. We have set us a GO FUND ME account for this cause. Donate now, and DOUBLE YOUR MONEY to help us provide better service and more hours to the kids in Cozumel! $9000 USD will hire a qualified, educated assistant for 1 year at a competitive rate of pay for 30 hours each week

Monthly Contribution

It's not the fun or beautiful part of a charity organization, but it is essential to keep it operating with stamina.  Your monthly contribution will help secure other important parts of ArtPower's program such as utilities, staff wages, administrative costs, office supplies, and outreach, as well as standard art supplies. Every dollar you donate to this aspect helps to ease ArtPower's budgetary concerns so we spend less time on fundraising and allows us to focus on direct service to our artists.


Monthly Giving Options

Sponsor a Technique

  You can bring the excitement and joy of discovery to our artists, like Chanti, (in the picture above, had just learned about Jackson Pollack and his technique)  by sponsoring the costs of a special materials and art technique.

New Techniques encourage exploration, growth and learning, and result in gained confidence, personal success, and expanded horizons. Kids will willingly and contentedly draw and paint all day long, but a new technique or material will likely change their world.
