Join us at Arts on Main on Thursday, November 7th from 5:30pm - 6:30pm for a reception and awards ceremony featuring 4th and 5th Grade Palette Pals! Artwork from each Palette Pal will be displayed at Arts on Main for one week.

Palette Pals is Arts on Main’s signature educational program and part of our Youth Art Enrichment Programs. Founded in 2011 in one elementary school as the After-School Enrichment Program, it is now in every elementary school in Gloucester County, with over 3000 children participating to date. Palette Pals is currently conducted as an extracurricular, before-school program for students in grades K-5, led by the school’s art teacher. The program’s focus is on teaching STEM-based art lessons that focus on current SOL objectives in math and science. Our goals are to provide hands-on experiential learning through art making and to increase student understanding of concepts related to math and science content. This program is provided at no charge to the children or the schools and relies solely on grants and donations.


Thank you to our sponsors!
