Our Impact
Over the last ten years, Carnegie Picture Lab has established partnerships with 13 schools in Washington and Oregon, serving over 185 Kinder-5th grade classrooms, and reaching over 4,000 elementary school children. Within a school year, our programs provide over 2,000 hours of classroom teaching, the only dedicated art instruction most of these children receive. Beyond the classroom, hundreds of children participate in community events, after-school programs, and summer workshops presented by Carnegie Picture Lab.

“As a parent, I love that my daughter has the opportunity to explore her creativity and learn about art in a fun, volunteer-led experience. To see her explore and build and to see her beam as she described her project just reminds me of The importance of getting our hands dirty and experimenting as we learn. Thank you for providing the space and inspiration for kids to explore creativity!”
— Josh Gonzales, Parent
“Carnegie Picture Lab is a pillar of the Walla Walla community.”
— Ben Vandonge, 5th Grade Teacher, Sharpstein Elementary
