Creative Painting Workshops for Communities
Art is more than an activity, it’s a tool for empowerment.
Our tote-bag painting events create safe and joyful spaces where underrepresented voices can express themselves freely, build confidence, and connect with others. Through creativity, participants discover new ways to tell their stories, celebrate their identities, and leave with a lasting reminder of their own talent and resilience.
Why communities choose Tote and Paint
Empowerment through Art
Our arts-based empowerment workshops use painting as a tool for self-expression. Each brushstroke is an opportunity to say, “this is who I am”.
Community & Belonging
Organizations and groups use our creative programs for communities to strengthen connections, encourage dialogue, and foster belonging among participants.
Accessible & Inclusive
Our sessions are designed for all skill levels—no art experience required. Every participant walks away with a finished hand-painted tote bag or canvas that reflects their individuality.
Impact That Lasts
Beyond the creative moment, participants take home not only their artwork but also a renewed sense of pride and confidence.

Tailored workshops for your Community
Whether your group serves youth, women, newcomers, or underrepresented voices, Tote and Paint customizes each session to align with your goals.
We’ve partnered with associations, schools, and community organizations to design arts and identity workshops that spark joy, reflection, and unity.
And if you’re looking for a program that goes beyond art and taps into identity, empowerment, and community building, Tote and Paint is here to help.
