Turning Art Into Action
ART Doing Good, Inc. is a nonprofit launching in 2025, but the heart behind it started years ago.
Since 2021, more than $70,000 has been raised through collaborative paintings, limited-edition prints, and live events, supporting causes like hunger relief, cancer research, job training, and more.
What began as a creative way to give back is now growing into something bigger. ART Doing Good brings together art, community, and purpose to create meaningful impact, one project at a time.
Where Creativity Meets Community Impact
More Than Paint on a Wall
ART Doing Good uses community-inspired art to tell local stories and connect people to nonprofits, volunteer opportunities, community events, and ways to get involved.
Because of an incredible response from the community, the Rotary Club of Howell Memorial Day match was fully funded, and everything beyond the match is already helping move the next mural forward even faster.
Over the next few weeks, the mural on the Thai Cafe wall across from the Courthouse will begin coming to life as the original oil painting is translated onto the building.
And this is only the beginning.
Art That Gives Back
Every project starts with purpose and turns creativity into real-world impact. Through murals, paintings, and campaigns, we raise funds and awareness for causes that matter.
How it works:
-
Community Murals
Interactive public art designed with heart. These large-scale pieces reflect local voices and spark connection, storytelling, and giving. -
Fundraising Paintings
Bold 8'x4' oil paintings divided into 100 canvases. Each collector owns a signed piece of a larger story with shared impact. -
Seasonal Print Campaigns
Original artwork offered as giclée prints, with 80% of each sale supporting nonprofit partners.
From food pantries to healing spaces, this is art created to do good, and keep going… for good.
Real Art. Real Impact.
Before ART Doing Good was official, the mission was already in motion:
-
LAYERS (Earl Farm Foundation): 100-canvas sunflower painting = meals for families in need
-
COLORS (Hope Scarves): Bold color representing courage for those facing cancer
-
SKY (Torch 180): Balloonfest-inspired art supporting job training
-
Mooseness (North Star Reach): Whimsy and joy supporting camp for kids with serious health challenges
-
Bourbon Trail (LACASA): A live-auctioned painting helping survivors of abuse and their families
-
Village Welcome (hARTland Art Walk): A mural that celebrates a community, and connects viewers to public art across Livingston County
