An ArtKids session

About us

We love children — that comes first

We create a safe space where children with intellectual developmental differences can open up through art — at their own pace, with respect and warmth.

An ArtKids session

ArtKids was born from a simple belief: every child deserves to be heard. We work with children who have mental and intellectual differences — for us this is not a limitation, but a valuable way of seeing the world.

Our teachers, art therapists and volunteers receive specialised training. We do not rush, compare, or judge casually.

Creativity restores confidence, a smile and the feeling “I can.”

Today ArtKids is an international community: branches in many countries, artwork contests, family classes and parent support.

Founded in 2014. Today — an international network with branches on different continents.

Our values

Dignity

Every child is a person. We speak the language of respect — without labels and without pity.

Safety

A predictable setting, attentive adults and a space where mistakes are allowed without fear.

Joy

Sessions should bring pleasure. Laughter, play and creativity are part of our therapy.

Family

We support not only children but parents too — you are not alone on this path.

Family voices

Parents on how creativity changes daily life.

Our daughter draws at home more often. Contest votes feel like applause.
