Give your idea a short title:

    What problem would you like to solve?

    Healthcare (deteriorating mental health), feeling limited in creative expressions

    Why is it important to solve? Why is it relevant for the community?

    Because humans at all ages need channels for their creative expressions, be it in writing, painting, sculpting, etc.

    What idea do you have to address the problem?

    Expand free or low cost art programs and art classes to low income adults. Funds are limited however if we can provide these classes for a limited amount of time, it's better than none

    Who would that help?

    Low income older adults who don't have the privilege to participate in art classes often offered to those who have the resources to do so

    What NYC borough would benefit from your idea?

    Bronx
