My Kinda Town; My Kinda Art 2026

Join Starts with Art as we continue our mission to empower Chicago-area youth through the transformative power of self-expression. Building on years of community impact, this year’s event highlights the power of art therapy—honoring the career and vision of our founder, Kathi Parisi. Come celebrate our ongoing work, recognize incredible donors (like you) who make it possible, and help us shape the future of youth wellness through art.
