From Sidewalk Smiles to Gallery Walls - We Buy the Artworks!
Crayons Across Cities is a traveling initiative of Melted Crayons Mission that brings free crayons to children, along with the oppoirtunity to have their artwork purchased for the Kids Crayon Gallery.
Each city stop begins with a handout day, followed by a collection day two weeks later when families submit their children’s art and receive $5 per piece. Local sponsors make it all possible by covering supplies and art purchases, transforming their support into colorful moments of creativity and recognition for kids.
On this page, you’ll find the current city in focus and upcoming stops as the project spreads from community to community.
