Kids Place Lex is a not-for-profit organized to provide free quality art classes for foster kids, kids in relative placement, kids on free and reduced lunch and other at-risk youth in Fayette and contiguous counties in central Kentucky. Our program is volunteer based and funded entirely by donations. Our driving belief is that cost should never be a barrier to at-risk youth receiving the benefits that result from engaging in creative activities. At a time when our school budgets are being restricted, often resulting in the reduction or elimination of art classes, it is essential that we find a way to bridge the gap—to continue to make these activities available to kids. Our programs range from visual arts to creative writing to photography. To learn more about our programs, visit our website at www.kidsplacelexinc.com.
