Join the most beautiful art project
for schools and kindergartens in the world.
Global community art project to inspire children and communities
to cherish what truly matter in life.
"Art of the Heart" is a dynamic global community art project that connects children aged 3 to 10 worldwide by creatively expressing their deepest wishes. This initiative serves as a platform for children to share what truly matters in life—expressed through the universal language of art, transcending geographical and cultural boundaries.
Educational Goals
Through participation in "Art of the Heart," students delve into vital themes such as inclusion, kindness, tolerance, and diversity, both within their local environments and in the broader global community. This project offers a valuable educational tool, adaptable to various curricula, and supports multicultural, multilingual, and developmentally appropriate learning experiences.
Mission
The mission of "Art of the Heart" is to foster a global perspective among young learners, enriching their educational journey through art and international friendships. This project encourages students, educators, and communities to connect by creating and sharing wishes that hold intrinsic value—fostering essential life skills and promoting a deeper understanding of diverse life experiences.
Project Foundation
Inspired by "Hannah’s Christmas Wish," a heartfelt story about a girl in a wheelchair whose simple desire was to walk, "Art of the Heart" highlights the impact of non-material wishes. This narrative forms the core of our project, reminding us of the powerful changes that can stem from the humblest desires.
