About us
Kids.Think.Art is born out of a dire need for more diversity in museums and a resolve to create change through art. People of color have historically been underrepresented in art collections, in art professions, and in art audiences. This discrepancy is the result of systemic racism that Kids.Think.Art combats. Through our programming, we
- bring the spotlight on diverse artists across the world
- build up a community of art lovers
- develop kids’ critical thinking skills, and continue to foster change in art.
