Welcome to my fundraising page! I'm very excited to raise money for The Art Room, an organization and cause I believe in, and I hope you can contribute.
Help us spread positive vibes throughout our community!
Thank you for any amount that you can give!
The Cause: Located in Denton, Texas, The Art Room is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit art studio that provides people who have mental health issues with a safe, creative, and educational space in which to create art. The Art Room offers classes, open studio time, materials, support, and guidance from volunteer mental health professionals and artists at no cost for those who become members of the program. It is a place where people can engage in the creative process, learn about, and produce art.
Our mission is to encourage healing and recovery through expressive art experiences for people who face mental health challenges. We aim to promote art as a means of coping and as a method for creating greater resilience in managing emotions and stress.
In addition to therapeutically based art classes, art technique classes, and open studio, The Art Room also offers Studio 416, a program for adolescents, and Arts for Veterans, a program specifically for Veterans. We are mostly volunteer based, and over the five years we've been open, we've enrolled over 500 people in the Denton area as members, and our numbers are growing.

The Art Room's Positive Cycology Ride fundraiser aims to support The Art Room in its mission, as well as promote the physical and mental health benefits of riding a bike. Since May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and National Bike Month, we want to bring awareness to The Art Room's mission, and to other ways that support one's mental health, such as physical exercise. We hope to engage the community in a fun bike riding activity that is accessible to everyone, both family-friendly and challenging.
We will have a post-ride celebration at East Side Denton, 117 E. Oak St., with local food trucks after the ride. With your registration, you'll get a free drink ticket, and a free raffle ticket making you eligible for some amazing raffle prizes. You can also purchase raffle tickets at the check-in/registration table to improve your chance of winning. We plan to have live music and lots of fun celebrating the ride and The Art Room's mission.
