Give to the Max Early Giving Update

Update posted 2 months ago
There's two places to give (maybe more if you count mailing or cash), and here is just for those who really get what I'm trying to accomplish.


Heijeu Arts is a culmination of the work I did as an artist, except for my painting practice. That means all the outreach, public art, art education, free programming for all ages throughout Minnesota... that's Heijeu.

I built the Tiny School from scratch, with some help from structural welders, friends, and my offspring. I had riveted 2x the number of rivets that I should have, and have the perma-knots in my back to show for it. I developed a way to instruct art outside of the school environment, so that if a given community doesn't have art ed, they can at least engage in the depths of self expression in a local park, community center, or neighborhood program. 

I work with all ages, all abilities, not teaching them how to be artists, but to let their inner artist come out. I believe that play is important, and failing fast is the best skill one can learn. I see kids and adults who crave this type of experience stay for hours, just to make as much art as they possibly can.

Heijeu Arts and the Tiny School of Art & Design is built to be inclusive and to take up space so we aren't seen as the same old make and take. We can't do this alone, so I hope we can push our 40 supporters to 200 by November 21st, Give to the Max Day! 

Hey Everyone! I know you love art and love seeing things happen in our community. I've been working towards Heijeu Arts for over 20 years, and I feel like everything is starting to come together.

Heijeu didn't come out of thin air. We are a compilation of all the many programs, activities, and experiences of yours truly,  and the folks that have supported or participated throughout the years.

This year has been great, and 2025 will be even better if we get the proper resources in place and we are able to build better relationships over the off season so we can succeed in the summer. 

We are asking for donations anywhere from $1 - 200, in order to fill up a $20,100 bucket. This is something that seems silly in it's simplicity, but to be real -- I want 200 people to say they appreciate what we do throughout the state of Minnesota. Your donation will say so much about your love of art and culture, community and engagement... 


WHEN WE MAKE THIS GOAL of 200 DONORS -- I will provide a free pop up Tiny School of Art & Design experience for a special event in the region!
