When we opened the Drawn2Imagine doors in 2010, formerly known as Kids-n-Art, we dreamed about being a staple for art in the Reno community. Now, nearly four years later, we’ve got our footing, we’ve got community support, and we continue to reach more kids looking to express themselves through creativity and art. It’s been no […]

Here at Drawn2Imagine, we often discuss the vast benefits that exposure to the arts has on our youth. While your children look forward to having a blast molding clay, painting with their fingers, drawing with colored pencils, etc., there are countless benefits they are receiving while doing so–most of which are unbeknownst to them.
