August's Artists

A nonprofit organization

August's Artists was inspired by a simple activity during a challenging healthcare experience - coloring on the hospital room door window with crayons.

August's Artists believes that every child and family deserves access to art as a way to find peace during stressful healthcare experiences, the ability to celebrate and commemorate health milestones, and the support to heal.

August's Artists is focused on serving pediatric healthcare patients and their families by providing consistent access to window crayons, commemorating their artwork as a way to celebrate some of the most formative and impactful moments in life, and meaningful advocacy for family-centered, whole-person care.
