The Oak Park Education Foundation received a $3,000 grant from Target in support of Art Start. This is OPEF's 5th Target grant for Art Start, and the largest Target grant we have received to date.

Thanks to our teachers, artists, and supporters - for creating a program that integrates art into the curriculum, working to improve the partnerships each year, and actively supporting the arts in education.
