🎨 A little fall creativity at Westbrook!
We loved spending time creating with Westbrook clients as they turned dried gourds into their own unique works of art. 🍂
A special thank you to the generous community member who donated the dried gourds for this project. Your kindness gave us the opportunity to create, connect, and enjoy a fun morning together.
We are so grateful! ❤️ ... See MoreSee Less

Creativity, connection, and a little color! 🎨✨
We loved spending time creating art with clients at Westbrook Health Services! Programs like this are a beautiful reminder that the arts are for everyone and that creativity can bring people together in some pretty special ways.
Thank you, Westbrook, for welcoming Artsbridge and giving us the opportunity to create, connect, and share the joy of art with your clients. ❤️

🎨 Hey, Belpre folks… WE’RE PAINTING! 🎨
It may have taken us a minute to get here, but we promise we weren’t just standing around staring at a blank wall. 😂
Between the rain, the summer heat, and two women with full-time jobs, getting the Belpre mural started took a little longer than we planned.
But the wait is over! 🖌️✨
The mural is officially underway!
This project is part of the celebration of America 250, giving us a chance to highlight Belpre, our community, and the history and spirit that make this area special. 🇺🇸
And the best part? Collaboration. This mural is coming together through the creativity, ideas, and support of people who care about making Belpre a great place to live, work, and visit. That’s what community art is all about. ❤️
We’d love for you to swing by, say hello, and check us out in action as this blank wall starts turning into something special.
And if you’re feeling artistic and want to pick up a paintbrush, come help us! 🎨 We’d love some extra hands. Just message us and we’ll tell you the schedule!
Bring yourself. Bring a friend. Bring your artistic talent. We’ll provide the paint!
We’re excited to see this one come to life. Belpre, this mural is for you! 🇺🇸🎨

🎨✨ What a week of school tours! ✨🎨
We wrapped up an incredible week with Brenden Trojan in Washington County, visiting students at Fort Frye, Waterford, and Belpre Elementary! 🥳
It’s safe to say this week was a SUCCESS! The students were captivated from start to finish and, if they had their way, Brenden would have kept wowing them all day long! 🤩
These school tours are a glimpse of what your support makes possible. We’re proud to bring inspiring, engaging arts experiences directly to students across the Mid-Ohio Valley. ❤️
Thank you to all of the schools, teachers, and students who made this week so special!
We’re already looking forward to the next one! 🎭👏
