Kell Glass Charity Partner: 

ARTS FOR LIFE

Arts For Life is a North Carolina nonprofit with art programs that serve pediatric patients in hospitals and clinics. When I first learned about what they do, I felt immediately connected. My own passion for art was discovered as a result of difficult times when I was younger, and while my struggles cannot be compared to what the Arts For Life kids are going through, I personally know how something as simple as a paint brush (or a shard of glass in my case) can bring joy and ease anxiety during challenging times.  

 

I'm honored to share that my primary charity partner is Arts For Life, and I look forward to supporting their efforts as they continue to bring the transformative power of art to children in hospitals and treatment clinics.

Annual Benefit Sculptures

 

Kell Glass anniversary sculpture: Each year to celebrate the anniversary of Kell Glass LLC and my charity partnership with Arts For Life, I will design and create a signature sculpture with 100% of its purchase donated to the organization. The inspiration for my 2024 sculpture, Artistic Freedom, featured an abstract design symbolizing the varied and unique artworks created through the Arts For Life program by children in hospitals and clinics who are bravely battling their medical conditions. I love what this organization does and I couldn't imagine a better way to celebrate the first anniversary of my business than to share my gratitude in this way. [Artistic Freedom has sold!]

Rise & Shine event sculpture: Arts for Life hosts its annual Rise & Shine breakfast event every October and I'm honored that my 2024 event sculpture SHINE ON (photo above) helped raise thousands of dollars at this year's event (congratulations to the winner)! I was equally honored to serve as a guest speaker to share about my passion and commitment to this mission.

Program Volunteer: This year, beyond supporting Arts For Life financially, I'm also serving as a weekly program volunteer at Levine Children's Hospital, working directly with pediatric patients and their families. Being able to connect with these kids through the power of art has been even more impactful than I ever imagined.
