Art To Grow On has been a staple of the elementary school experience in San Pedro, Lomita and Harbor City for over 35 years.
We are starting small but we are back! A number of San Pedro schools have joined us for this year's three projects. If you would like to see the program in your school please reach out for information!

WE NEED HELP!
We desperately need volunteers to help us bring back our fun art projects to the classroom and you can help! No art skills necessary - just a little of your time and lots of great smiles as the kids get to create something amazing!
If you have any interest in helping to restart this amazing program in the San Pedro and Harbor City area please contact us at program@arttogrowon.com.
Visit our Facebook and Instagram social media pages (links are at the bottom of the page) to see some of this year's fun artwork!
We have a permanent collection of projects that you can do at home,
you can try them out here:
Interested Artists: We rely on our community artists to share their expertise and kid friendly projects. If you are interested in submitting a project for selection please contact us! We hold our selection every other year in odd years. Feel free to peruse the past projects pages. We generally do not consider projects highly similar to those of the past five years. If you have further questions visit our Artist information page or email us at program@ArtToGrowOn.com.
School Chairpersons:
Your service is invaluable! Our board meetings are held once a month during the school year Sept - May at the United Methodist Church in San Pedro at 9am on the second Thursday of the month. The brochure above has the information or visit the Docent Information page for more info. In addition each school needs to sign and return a Letter of Understanding for each year as well as a check to reserve seats for their school in the project Workshops. Each docent seat for our workshops is $40/each and can be paid by the school, parent organization, or individual.
