The Portland Child Art Studio is dedicated to supporting the perceptual development of children through artistic learning. PCAS is also committed to providing equitable access to quality arts education. The Portland Child Art Studio (PCAS) Educational Program supports the perceptual development of children ages 3-14 through artistic learning. Our educational program is also committed to increasing equitable access to quality arts education by providing full scholarships to underserved families. 2024 was our thirteenth consecutive year of operation, offering classes for preschool, after-school, and homeschooled children as well as focused art clubs, free art workshops, and art-based group events. PCAS classes offer children the opportunity to experience an immersive art environment, learning about and working with a wide range of mediums including illustration, painting, plaster, ceramics, paper-mache, recycled sculpture, printmaking, and more. PCAS is a process-based child art studio focused upon the unique experience of making art for each individual child and using pedagogical research inspired by the work of Rhoda Kellogg. In 2021, PCAS relocated to a new studio space at the base of a low-income housing building in downtown/NW Portland, known as the Vibrant building. This move positioned PCAS to make a real impact in increasing equitable access to quality art education and enrichment. Since our inception in 2012, PCAS has provided 35,859 art experiences and 238 full scholarships, as well as countless partial scholarships through sliding scale options. In 2024 alone, PCAS provided 18 full scholarships and 3,299 art experiences to kids through classes, workshops, and group events. This number includes the 480 free art class experiences provided to kids specifically from the Vibrant building in which we are located, a low-income housing building that provides housing for families experiencing homelessness. PCAS has worked continuously in collaboration with Vibrant staff to establish a permanent and expansive art program for kids living in the Vibrant and the surrounding low-income housing buildings. PCAS also celebrates children's art in our community by maintaining an exhibition gallery window, visible from the street to all passerby and regularly features specific pieces made by children in the neighborhood. 0 108497 108497 Michael Jakola President of the Board of Directors 3 0 0 0 Wendy Mitchell Vice President and Secretary of the Board 3 0 0 0 Paula Gehrig Treasurer of the Board of Directors 1 0 0 0 Margaret Fivecrows Director 1 0 0 0 Reem Ghunaim Director 1 0 0 0 Devon Mitchell Executive Director, Director 15.00 16000 0 0 Kiana Lamberton Key Employee,Director of Programs and Operations 32 35665 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 OR Devon Mitchell 8648 NW Ogden ST Portland OR 97231 5039363314 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 37691 51189 27857 46859 35089 198685 26335 14115 69789 55151 80119 245509 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 64026 65304 97646 102010 115208 444194 1000 5000 125 0 300 6425 0 0 0 0 0 0 1000 5000 125 0 300 6425 437769 34 23 18 40 40 155 0 0 0 0 0 0 34 23 18 40 40 155 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 64060 65327 97664 102050 115248 444349 0.98519 0.95474 0.00035 0.00031 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 Description;Amount^Advertising;507|Art Supplies;3036|Bank and Credit Card Charges;3151|Business Licenses and Fees;208|Insurance;1657|Meetings;1011|Miscellaneous;43|Office Supplies;56|Parking;850|Payroll Processing Fees;863|Professional Development;1500|Publications and Memberships;1014|Studio Materials;2270|Snacks;621|Website and Apps;1769^Total;18556^
