Quote from Elise Gallinot Goldman, KID smART Executive Director: KID smART is thrilled to celebrate our 20th birthday beside both longtime partners and our new neighbors on Bayou Road. Over the last two decades, KID smART has co-created arts-centered learning with over 30,000 public school students. We hope they’ll all come out to ART JAM!
