JAGUAR LAND ROVER SUPPORTS P.S. ARTS FAMILY ART NIGHT AT LOCAL LOS ANGELES ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

As part of Jaguar Land Rover North America’s corporate sponsorship of P.S. ARTS, JLRNA employees distributed Jaguar Land Rover branded art kits to approximately eighty students and their families at P.S. ARTS’ Family Art Night at Baldwin Hills Elementary School in Los Angeles on Tuesday, Feb. 10, 2015.



The students, with their families, were invited to participate in rotations of dance, music and visual arts activities. Upon arrival, each child received a Jaguar Land Rover art kit that contained various art supplies and markers featuring the colors of Jaguar and Land Rover vehicles such as Firenze Red, Nara Bronze, Firesand and Italian Racing Red.



 

Launched in 2010, Family Art Nights are free, hands‑on events hosted by P.S. ARTS Teaching Artists at their partner schools throughout Los Angeles County. The program gives students and their families the opportunity to learn about arts education and its benefits by participating in art‑making together.




“Family Art Nights are such an integral part of the P.S. ARTS Community Outreach Program, which contributes to long‑term arts program sustainability in our partner schools. They give families a unique opportunity to bond through creative activities in a safe environment,” said Dr. Kristen Paglia, Chief Executive Officer of P.S. ARTS. “We are thrilled that Jaguar Land Rover North America representatives could be a part of this special evening as their support means a lot to our program.”
