Arts & Education
The Abundance Foundation believes that art has the power to illuminate social justice issues, make visible the invisible and permit the deepest expression of the personal impacts of injustice, war, and disaster. Art and education are essential for personal growth, development and self-expression. Our Arts and Education program supports the creation of multiple avenues for showcasing the transformative power of art, and enabling innovative educational projects to take flight.
