Picked up 12 cases of paper from the Gas Technology Institute in DesPlaines and took them directly to one of my favorite Creative Pitch programs, Billy Jackson's art program at the Community Youth Development Institute on Chicago's far Northwest Side. A great donation for all!

Does anyone have need of 4 gigantic boxes of this tube material? They are willing to deliver it to your school or program. Let me know asap so the donor doesn't have to landfill it.

Thanks to the generosity of Bare Feet Power Yoga and Dick Blick Art Supplies on Kingsbury, Creative Pitch was able to give each 2nd grade student at St. Nicholas of Tolentine school their own sketchbook. Amazing!

A wonderful first visit to St. Nicholas of Tolentine school today to deliver sketch books and materials. 2nd grade teacher Meredith Fisher arranged to have all 26 of her students at the front door to greet me and give me hand made cards. Amazing! This makes all the hard work worth it....

The Community Youth Development Institute (CYDI) and art teacher Billy Jackson, do a lot with very limited resources. This alternative high school in a very at-risk area of Chicago's Southwest side welcomes students who have not met with success in other public high schools. At CYDI they thrive and Creative Pitch is proud to keep their art room stocked!
A big welcome to our newest program! Meredith Fisher teachers 24 3rd graders at St. Nicholas of Tolentine School on Chicago's far Southwest side. While their music program is is incredible, visual art programs have been severely cut and she wants her class to have more than just paper and crayons to work with. And we can help!!!!
