I support the Lighthouse School because they promote healthy social skills, creative learning and personalized growth.
David Lazarus / 8 Painted Chairs Artist
The
chair project reflects the mission of the school in that I created the
composition with my head, worked on it with my heart, and painted it
with my hand.
MJ Levy Dickson / 8 Painted Chairs Artist
Judging
from the character of the Lighthouse School students that I have
observed, the school earns any support our community can provide.
