At IPaintMyMind, our mission is to make art accessible to everyone while fostering meaningful connections between communities, businesses, and schools. We believe that art is a catalyst for engagement, opportunity, and access, and we’re dedicated to delivering programs and partnerships that reflect these values.

Through our work with schools, we provide art resources and experiences that inspire creativity and learning for students and teachers alike. Simultaneously, we collaborate with businesses to create and display works that are inclusive, unifying, and impactful, helping to sustainably fund arts education programs.

With our “Get Art, Give Back” model, every corporate art service we provide fuels our ability to give back to local schools and communities. Whether it’s empowering kids with access to creative tools, supporting teachers with inspiring materials, or beautifying workplaces, we are committed to connecting communities through the transformative power of art.

Evan is also available to support corporate art integrations via Gensler and residential or artistic scopes personally via EvanLaRuffa.com

Our corporate art services, whether our art rentals, art consulting, or commissioned mural services, always give back by funding arts education programs or visual arts lesson plans, and other digital tools that support arts education in K-12 schools nationwide.

Art is a human right, let’s prove it, together.

ART + COMMUNITY

13+ Years of Connection & Impact

Our effort to become one of the most trusted nonprofit arts organizations in Chicago & beyond began with a vision for equitable access to creative inspiration.

By connecting artists, businesses, and underserved neighborhoods in the process, we’ve been able to pay out over 180k to local artists support companies like Pepsi, adidas, LinkedIn, and Discover, and then leveraged those projects to then provide arts education programming to over 180 public schools, hundreds of teachers, and thousands of students nationwide.
