Art For The People now has a scholarship fund, the Judith Graebner Educational Fund. Donations to this fund will help low income people study art. Donors have included Community Ministries of Montgomery County and Congressman Albert Wynn. The first recipient was a man from Interfaith Works (Community Vision) adult shelter, in Silver Spring.

We have been asked to return to every location where we have presented projects.

Art For The People's aims include:
Expanding and diversifying our teaching staff,
Continuing to provide well-managed workshops and high quality activities,
Continuing to advocate for, and implement, meaningful art projects that contribute to the well-being of the communities they serve.
The many, many individual donations we receive are appreciated and invaluable. AFTP also accepts donations of art supplies and works with volunteers.
