artmosphere nonprofit arts education nationwide

Colette Thiebaud and Leon Barhoum founded Artmosphere, a nonprofit that delivers curated art education boxes called ARTicles to underserved schools across five U.S. states. Launched as a tribute to Thiebaud’s grandfather, the late artist Wayne Thiebaud, the organization recently received its largest donation from philanthropist Maria Manetti Shrem and has partnered with FOG Design+Art to debut a family program. The founders are now planning an event at Art Basel Miami called Confections & Connections for emerging collectors and patrons.
