With over 200 artists involved in this project, the CAF mission is to engage with young people through schools and other local agencies and encourage a passion for art. As it is a subject which is continually underfunded and is slowly leaving the education system, it is important to show students art’s importance in society. As an artist involved we were given a ‘Pooch’ to paint (designed by Eero Aarnio) that will now travel around the country with this travelling exhibition to get us all talking and creating more art.
