MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- Two nonprofit art groups teamed up to make sure at-risk kids have educational, yet fun materials while at home.
The Black Box Fund and Arts at Large will hand out 6,000 free My Art Bag kits to children in underserved areas of Milwaukee.
The bags include art supplies, along with an age-appropriate book and art curriculum specifically tied to the book.
The first 1,000 bags were distributed at Pete's Fruit Market on the city's north and south sides.
More distributions are planned in the future for middle schoolers.
