"The children in the DrawBridge group came to my office and showed off their impressive art projects. They are so proud! They won't let me exhibit them in my office but insist on keeping everything and decorating their own walls. I was genuinely impressed!"

DrawBridge Facilitator
“Katie started coming to our weekly DrawBridge art group at the age of 5. Her gaze was downcast and she never smiled. After just a few art sessions… her mother told me that Katie was waking up excitedly every single morning and asking, ‘Is today art day?’ It’s been 6 years now, and Katie still jumps into my arms every week!”

“I grew up in the Tenderloin and I began participating with DrawBridge… What I enjoyed most about it is that it gave kids the opportunity to experience the happiness of creating and how it can ease daily burdens… It helped me realize that working with kids was what I wanted to do as a career.”

This is my 17th year working with Drawbridge! The weekly art groups provide a safe space for the children to have the freedom and support to experiment and express themselves. I feel so lucky being able to connect with the children and offer an hour of creativity, exploration and fun!
