As a youth, Hopper used a small wooden box for his art materials. On its lid, he inscribed Would Be Artist. Our “Would Be Artist” Kits, filled with artmaking tools and a pencil box, encourage youth today to explore, observe and sketch their world - just like Edward Hopper.
Our “Would Be Artist” Kit is a canvas backpack filled with colored pencils, eraser, sharpener, sketchbook, and pencil box (like Hopper’s!).
Your support helps expand this kit to include grade-level appropriate art materials and program instruction.
