What is Artists for Kids?

The Artists for Kids Trust was established in 1989 through a generous partnership among some of Canada's finest artists and the North Vancouver School District. Its mission, through the sale of original prints created by its artist patrons (see links, below), is to build an art education legacy for the children of British Columbia. The AfK Gallery is home to a stunning collection of work created by its patrons. AfK provides a variety of art enrichment program opportunities for thousands of students of all ages each year, including the popular Paradise Valley Summer School of Visual Art. For more information, or to see our Artist Patrons' work, visit the Artists for Kids website. To follow current happenings at Afk, please visit our Facebook page.
