They also have the Young Art Writers Project(YAWP) that offers resources to Kindergarten-college teachers that seek to encourage kids to write about art in their communities by publishing their work online and in the quarterly magazine. Please spread the word to educators about this resource. If you know a business that would like to distribute Number Magazine in Donelson email Randy Purcell at Randy@numberinc.org.
