How did Perky Palette get started?
It all started at the kitchen table talking to my husband. With all my paint supplies on the table creating yet another mess, my husband and I were talking about our goals and ideas. I was talking to him about how I wish there was a way to help people get started in art and how interesting art therapy is. How most people don't realize the healing effects of creating art and even where to start. There are so many mediums to try and it took me a while to find what I really enjoy.
We got the funds together to start our nonprofit and asked my bestie from high school to join. Sitting at the kitchen table a few months later, we had dinner and talked about all our plans. Signed all the paper work and sent it in. After a few months, we got the letter of approval from the irs that Perky Palette was officially a 501 c 3.
We all have talked and realize the lack of arts in the smaller towns around Texas. Our goal is to find a building and create a place where all can come together to create and enjoy the arts. To raise money to donate supplies to other organizations who are in need. To help people get started. The sky is the limit.
I enjoy creating art. I love hearing peoples stories and how they came to be amazing artist. They all start by someone doing something small and impacting the rest of their lives.
