Up and Away Art Non-Profit

Up and Away, Art is a newly established non-profit. Our mission is to inspire, create, and educate others using transformational art and designs. Our providers and clients use their creative gifts, talents and intentions to heal from their past traumas. Together, they experience personal growth, discover hidden talents, and reach unimaginable, amazing new heights. 

With this non-profit we connect professional artists with aspiring artists and help them discover their hidden talents and help them share these talents with the world through International Art Exhibits and Educational Up and Away Art Adventures with collaboration with the founders AbsoluteArts.In  out of Jaipur, India, who have a network of 6,000 amazing artists, with global connections. 

We are seeking sponsors to help with startup funds for the establishment of the Up and Away Art online presence and our overall goals and objectives. This non-profit provides quality education and training with internships for the arts and design, photography, marketing and website design. We would like to promote Up and Away Art with a high quality, professional website, with marketing and technology support to connect with more participants throughout the world. The funds would also be used to purchase a handicap accessible art studio to transport handicapped participants to art museums and events. Up and Away, Art would also launch in-person and virtual events for our International Exhibits in Europe, India and the United States. Funds would also go to provide art supplies and materials to participants who do not have the means to purchase such items and provide art experiences to low-income families in rural areas.  Aspiring artists and internship participants will be featured on our website and their art will be marketed on a variety of products and sold on our online Art Store to help make our non-profit organization sustainable. 

Up and Away Art will have a small gallery housed within a martial arts local business and mental health providers, in Menomonie, WI, called Rising Phoenix and Glowing Embers. Our dream is coordinate the efforts of our mental health and wellness service providers.  We would like to provide a student centered, Multidisciplinary Art Education Program with martial arts, meditative arts, and personal fitness experiences that cohesively, work together to balance and harmonize the mind, body, and spirit.  

 

About me:
I am a mom, business owner, teacher, non-profit founder and recently, an internationally recognized published artist.  A few years ago, I discovered art after caring for my father who passed away from a rare form of prostate cancer. I also used art as a medium to recover from a traumatic and bazaar jet ski accident. While sitting at a picnic table I was plowed into by a full-speed jet ski. I was immobile for three months due to a lacerated foot and was wrongfully terminated after the accident. I started my own business called Creative Solutions and Advocacy LLC and began using Transformational Art to help others heal from past traumas, depression, extreme anxieties, substance recovery and grief from the loss of a loved ones. This was very successful with amazing results. Up and Away Art participants are loving this art medium, and we are transforming lives. The positive impact and these results led to reaching out to public libraries, businesses, offering free Transformational Brain Art events and the formation of the non-profit Up and Away Art.
