Just in time for the holidays, we teamed up with the kids at Bellevue Hospital to help them make drawings to give to family & friends as gifts: reindeer sailed through the skies, Sonic screamed down the slopes, & Titan TV Man stomped around looking for presents. 🤖🎄

🎃 At Bellevue Hospital we cobbled together creepy crawley #Halloween characters! One child said, "I can’t wait to show my werewolf-headed ghost with mushroom feet to my mom" 👻 Then we decorated owl figurines to keep in the kids' rooms as their own private guardian🦉#ArtHeals

We ❤️ & appreciate all the places the @NACKidsCan wild imaginations take us! This time we turned natural shells into Ninja Turtles, Courage the Cowardly Dog (shoutout to #NYCanimation!!), and secret troves for hidden messages. Thx to our spe-shell 🐚 pro artist volunteers!
Our friends at @inkwellkids stopped by and spent the afternoon making seashell art with our NAC kids. From necklaces and bracelets, to key chains and displays, our kids had an amazing time expressing themselves and their creativity on their unique seashell backdrops!

At the #NACOlympics, caricatures, character design, and "my hero" trophies were our events and the kids swept it all! This was a special outing with @NACKidsCan, a center for children with special medical needs in adoptive & #foster care. #Adopt #ArtHeals #InkWellKids #Nonprofit

Love this documentary short. Demonstrates how second chances for some can help others get a first sense of what it feels like to be cared about and given something special, made just for them. https://t.co/QJcK62yjxK

We made Valentine's cards and Be Mine boxes w the @NACKidsCan youth & mentors this month! Their butterfly, duck, cow, & cat designs delivered messages of love and support, & each teen got a gift of art supplies to keep creating on their own. 🦋 🦆 🐮 😻 #FosterChildren #Adopt
