Reclaim focus. Restore presence. Renew creativity.

Drawing is Life is an advocacy campaign committed to restoring focus, emotional grounding, and reflective thinking in contemporary art education by integrating mindfulness-based drawing practices into classrooms and community arts spaces. Rooted in research and grounded in accessible routines, the campaign empowers teachers to cultivate slowing down, deep looking, and compassionate critique : habits that help students regulate attention, build empathy, and create with intention. Through free educator resources, public workshops, and partnerships with museums and arts organizations, Drawing is Life champions a cultural shift toward art rooms where presence is valued, reflective communication is nurtured, and creativity becomes a pathway to wellness and connection.
