Donation to Golden Rule Child Care Center

Each year the Art Council donates funds to Golden Rule Child Care to go on an art related field trip with their students. This year due to COVID, they were unable too. Instead, our donation helped the Child Care Center buy supplies to make their own masks:) Even wearing the masks we could see their smiling faces. What incredible little artist!
