Students at Wood County got to meet Zac Morgan, a Grammy nominated children’s entertainer! Zak’s music delivers songs with wit and charm that inspire and his program is filled with laughter and encourages learning. Stay tuned for more pictures as we close out the week. Artsbridge took Zac to schools ALL OVER the Mid-Ohio Valley this week. 🌎

A few weeks ago, our Executive Director got to sit down with Dustin from iHeartMedia and record some radio ads you might be hearing soon on your favorite local radio stations! 📻📟
Tune in to 102.1 or 107.1 from 11/25 through 11/30 and you'll get to hear what it's all about!
Artsbridge was grateful when iHeartMedia stepped in to help us during Summer Music Series and now they are working with us to spread awareness of Artsbridge and what we do, highlighting our Fall Fund Drive which is in full swing through the end of the year.
iHeartMedia looks to make a difference in their community, both on air and off, and we are grateful for their support! Be sure to tune in and let us know how Lyndsay did!

Last week, Artsbridge got to hang out with the ladies at Angels Harbor and make some fun art. 🎨
This time, we made sleeping eye masks and it was so fun to see how different each one turned out. We might have had ourselves a little Christmas music dance party while we were at it!
Artsbridge visits the ladies at Angels Harbor monthly, always providing something new for them to experience in the arts! Supplies for our Art with Angels program were purchased thanks to a generous grant from the Marietta Welfare League. We are grateful for their support of our mission to Educate, Entertain, and Enrich. ... See MoreSee Less
