Department of Homeless Services, NYC - Holiday Art Supply Drive

This holiday season, the team at The Art Career Podcast is collecting art supplies for children and adults served by the New York City Department of Homeless Services (DHS). While food and shelter are understandably the primary focus for the Department of Homeless Services, the team at The Art Career has been in direct conversation with them, and they’ve expressed a pressing need for art supplies. We will be delivering all donated supplies before the holidays, ensuring that your contributions reach the individuals and families who need them most.  As we all know, art has the power to heal, inspire, and transform lives. It offers a vital outlet for self-expression, creativity, and connection, particularly for individuals and families navigating challenging times. By providing access to art materials, we aim to nurture creativity, encourage emotional well-being, and bring moments of joy and possibility to those who need it most. Your generosity will directly help foster a sense of empowerment and hope within these communities.Whether you donate supplies or help spread the word, every effort makes a difference.
