2024 ArtWave benefitting the Chi Chi Rodriguez Youth Foundation
We're excited to announce that ArtWave will support the Chi Chi Rodriguez Youth Foundation this year! The Chi Chi Rodriguez Youth Foundation is a Nonprofit 501(c) 3 organization that helps at-risk youth achieve academic, social, and economic success by keeping them engaged in their education and acquiring practical skills necessary to succeed at life.
The funds raised from our two workshops will be directly contributed to the Chi Chi Rodriguez Artist-Led Art Project, an initiative dedicated to producing artwork for the community garden at the Chi Chi Rodriguez School. We will also be contributing supplies for the Chi Chi Rodriguez Youth Art Program, inspiring and supporting future generations of artists.
