DO WHAT YOU LOVE.
While a lot of people have been caught up in the presidential campaign, we are focusing on our own #DOWHATYOULOVE campaign, that will support our upcoming Art Makes You Winter Art Camps for underprivileged children.
We had a blast in our Art Makes You Summer camps here in US with Solid Ground children in Seattle (Building community to end poverty). We had a Photography intro class with Inese Westcott capturing our own portraits, painting project with amazing Kimberly Adams and drama class with Olga Rublinetska. Thank you to our partners Toys for Kids local organization.
In Latvia, Jurmala, we had several day camp introducing children with Dance, Acting, Painting, Photography, Music, Design and Makeup art. We are truly thankful to the best of the best art professionals who shared their time and talent with children: Andrejs Zavadskis - photo, Liga Liberte - dance, Anita Intaite - makeup art, Agnese Rancane - graphic design, Kristpas Rasims - acting, Gundega Duduma - painting, Annija Putnina - performing arts. And our awesome hosts Kaspars Zlidnis and Valters Fridenbergs. The big THANK YOU to our very own Antra Savlevica for putting this all in to action.

Even more importantly, we all made new friendships, that makes this art camp experience even more fun and meaningful.
Fall Art Makes You Art Camp in Ukraine is happening as I write this (Oct 28 - 30th). Will keep you up-to-date with more photos and info coming up.
Now, to the next adventures - getting ready for ART MAKES YOU WINTER ART CAMPS 2017!
