Since 1995 Rush Philanthropic has worked tirelessly in support of its mission to provide emerging artists with exposure and exhibition opportunities, and to provide underserved youth with invaluable arts education experiences. Today, our Rush Education Programs serve 2300 public school children. Our programs are designed to inspire students, provide positive alternatives to high-risk behaviors, and support increased academic performance. Rush is proud of its success to date and looks toward a future in which our programs grow to encompass more children and artists, and we can continue to enhance access to arts institutions and arts experiences for minority and economically disadvantaged populations. The Rush HeARTS Education luncheon will allow us to grow our programs making this bright future we envision a reality.
