Black Pebble Arts Foundation :: Donate
Donations to the Black Pebble Arts Foundation helps make Balsa Man a blossoming fount of creativity.
Where Your Donation Dollars are Spent
- The majority of donations are set aside for tiny art grants to all our tiny artists—last year we awarded more than 30 tiny art grants!
- Art grants support the Balsa Regionals—encouraging tiny art worldwide!
- A portion is used to help offset the materials cost to build the Balsa Man.
- Any additional funds are used to buy materials for tiny artists to use during Balsa Tiny Art Build Parties.
We accept monitary donations as well as in-kind donations in the form of balsa wood, art materials, and tools—you won’t believe how much glue and how many xacto blades our artists go through. If you are interested in making an in-kind donation of equipment or materials please contact us at donate@balsaman.org.
