Katie's Art Project founded by Stephanie Klemons (Hamilton, If/Then, In the Heights), Associate Choreographer of Hamilton, announced an online arts programming targeted toward kids facing life threatening illness in hospitals with artists all over the world. Many artists have been turning to online platforms as quarantines have caused venues and galleries across the globe to shut-down amid the Covid-19 pandemic.
"Stay Home With Katie's Art Project" will be hosted on their Instagram and Facebook pages @katiesartproject every Tuesday and Thursday at 11am. Programming includes performances, workshops, informationals, and live Q&A's by musicians, dancers, visual artists from across the Globe including Will Van Dyke (Little Shop of Horrors), Kamille Upshaw (Hamilton, Mean Girls), Collin Jeffrey (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory), Brenden Yeates (Australian West Side Story), and more! There is a special "crafty Sunday" initiative as well, with volunteers, hobbyists, and amateur artists..
