Art Therapy Kits

Directions for donors and volunteers:

Thank you for helping the Heritage Arts Foundation gather art supplies and assemble these art therapy kits for our community.  If your family or organization would like to gather supplies and assemble kits, please see the kits content list below along with kit assemblage instructions.  

Kit assemblage instructions: 

We have two art therapy kit sizes available, kids (3-12 yrs) and teens (13-18 yrs). Supplies for these kits can be purchased and assembled at your home or office space. Provided are links to Amazon and Walmart where you can find supplies that will fit the size and dimension of the kits.  The links associated with the supplies are to show examples of what is needed for the kits, please feel free to adjust the brand of the supplies. We ask that you do not exceed the size of the products or the count of the packaged supplies. All supplies were chosen for a specific reason, if you would like to make an adjustment to the contents please contact us for approval.  The supply list below will specify how many of each item to include in the kit.  The total cost of the kit was budgeted to not exceed $25 per kit.  If you are finding this to be a challenge.  Please contact us and we will direct you supplies that will help meet this budget.  Please ensure all listed supplies represented are included in each kit.  Each kit will need a printed tag and content list printed and included in each kit.  The printable graphics are available below in the supply list.  The graphics are formatted for a 8.5” x 11” piece of white cardstock.  You should be able to print from a home printer station. 

Donation of supplies: If you would like to donate specific supplies in any quantity, please drop them off at the Alpine Art Center in Alpine, Utah.  We will be assembling kits at our facility as the supplies are made available.  If you are unsure what supplies to donate or what is needed, please contact us for more information.
