Posters Transform Kid's Art into Fine Art and Help Raise Thousands for Schools

Seattle, WA (PRWEB) December 13, 2004 -- Kid’s Art Project designs fine art
posters around even the simplest children’s art to create a display so
impressive, it could pass as a museum print in your home. The idea was
originally developed to give parents a unique way to showcase and preserve their
children’s art while helping to support their schools. Kid’s Art Project will
donate 10 % of every purchase to schools and other charitable organizations.
Gene Bouldin, owner of Kid’s Art Project said, “Kid’s art in itself is
amazing, but something magical happens when you creatively enhance it with the
child’s name, date, and a complimentary background. In essence, ‘fridge art’
becomes worthy of any wall. The child is honored, the parents are proud, and
grandparents clamor for copies.”
Since posters can also be designed
around multiple works of art, the idea has naturally evolved into a valuable
fundraising tool as well providing new opportunities for schools. Original
classroom collage posters sell for thousands of dollars at school auctions
around the country.
Brenda Hunt, a parent volunteer at Emily Dickinson
Elementary in Redmond, Washington, recently commissioned two classroom posters
for their school auction. “The posters received rave reviews and collectively
raised $3,600 so we couldn’t be more thrilled,” said Ms. Hunt. “Plus, this
concept opens up new opportunities for us. Parents who desperately want the art
but missed out in the bidding can purchase smaller copies. They make great
teacher appreciation gifts as well.”
Kid’s Art Project was developed in
2002 to celebrate the creative efforts of our children and to help support the
educational and community organizations that nurture them. Combining the latest
technologies in digital imaging and printing with museum quality paper and
archival inks, Kid's Art Project transforms treasured original "kid art" into
large format fine art posters. Samples, order forms, and a variety of size and
pricing options are available through the website at www.kidsartproject.com
