Keep art at the heart of Maya Lin
Help us raise $105,000 by June 2027
What's at Risk — and How You Can Help
- The problem: District funding for Maya Lin's arts-integrated learning program has been cut. To keep the program for next year, new funding must be committed by the end of January 2027.
- What's at risk: Our dedicated art teacher, who partners with every classroom teacher to weave art into math, reading, science, and all other subjects students learn.
- Our goal: Raise $105,000 by June 2027.
- What it funds: The full program for the 2027–2028 school year for every student, every day.
- How you can help: Give what you can today and share this page with family, friends, and neighbors.
Why It Matters
The arts are part of our school's DNA. Maya Lin is a hub for creative, smart, critical thinkers, and art is woven into everything our kids do.
It's learning through art, not just about art. Kids draw fractions, act out history, and build science models so that math, reading and science don't just stick, they come alive. When kids make it, move it, and see it, they understand it deeper and remember it longer.
Our students don't just “have art class.” They:
- 🌍 Study climate change through sculpture
- 📜 Explore history through storytelling
- ❓ Learn to ask questions the way artists do
💛 Give
Every gift matters. Whether you give $5 or $1,000, you help keep paint on the tables and the program alive. Give what you can, when you can.
If every family at Maya Lin gave an average of $250 per family, we would meet our goal, but there's no set amount.
📣 Share

Together, we'll get over the finish line.
