The Broken Crayon began as a mobile art studio with a simple mission: to make art fun, engaging, and accessible for children and families in Charlotte. Over the past three years, we’ve splattered paint in communities all over Charlotte, brought sensory joy to playdates, celebrated countless birthdays, and helped kids (and grown-ups!) tap into the magic of creativity.

Now, we’re ready to grow.

The Studio Seed Campaign is our next big leap, a grassroots fundraising effort to help us open a permanent creative home: a vibrant, child-centered art studio where imaginations can run wild, messes are welcome, and creativity is always in reach. This studio will allow us to expand our programs, host more workshops and events, offer consistent classes, and become a creative anchor for families and the community.

We’re calling on our community, the families, friends, educators, and dreamers who believe in our work, to help plant the seeds for this next chapter. Your contributions will support studio build-out, rent, art supplies, furniture, and startup costs to get our doors open.

This isn’t just about a space. It’s about legacy. It’s about building something lasting for the next generation of creative minds.

Let’s grow this together!
