If you’re a parent, you probably know what it’s like to have a steady stream of artwork coming home from school. Your child might have quick colorful drawings to share, or even painted masterpieces. Every type of medium is great because the art captures your child’s personality at that moment in time. But if the fridge is filling up, what happens to those pieces? Instead of adding them to a pile, just to be forgotten, what if you turned them into something more? That’s where Art to Remember comes in. Our keepsake options make it easy to create a family tradition that lasts year after year—all while supporting your school along the way!
We turn your child’s artwork into treasured keepsakes, special mementos of their growing up years. Not only that, but you can also store your child’s art in your own private online gallery to view, share and shop anytime!
Through our school partnership program, we turn student artwork into a fundraiser that supports elementary art programs. If your child’s school has partnered with us, the art your child created for their school fundraiser is on file at Art to Remember, available for you to add to your private gallery. Even better, gallery orders continue to support the affiliated school!
Start a Tradition That Grows with Your Child
Children’s artwork naturally evolves as they grow. That’s why it’s the perfect foundation for a meaningful tradition. You can track the progress of their emotional and artistic development and build memories of how their interests and personality have either changed over time or grown even deeper roots!
They likely start with simple shapes and bright colors. But then their artwork takes on a more detailed and expressive attitude over time. Being able to save and revisit these pieces lets you see that evolution unfold.
Most families love being able to highlight one standout project each year with a treasured keepsake or two. The point is to turn each year’s creative milestone into something you can revisit regularly. You don’t have to save everything to make memories. It’s about intentionally preserving what matters most.
Your School’s Art to Remember Program Makes It Easy
One of the simplest ways to start or continue the tradition of honoring your child’s artistic progress is by participating in your school’s Art to Remember program. Then you don’t have to figure out how to preserve artwork on your own. You can order a high-quality keepsake to serve as a memento of their creative eye at their current age, year after year.
From magnets and mugs to ornaments, keychains, and bookmarks, there are options for every budget, which makes it easy to order something meaningful without overthinking. Many parents even use these keepsakes as gifts for grandparents, holidays, or special occasions.
Even better, every purchase supports your child’s school. So you’re not just creating a keepsake—you’re helping your child’s teacher fund new art supplies and creative opportunities in the classroom.
Create Your Own Family Art Gallery—Anytime
Even outside of a school fundraiser, you can still turn your child’s artwork into a lasting tradition with Art to Remember. We’re proud to have launched an online personal gallery feature. This is where families can save, organize, and share artwork all in one place. Even better, it’s completely free to set up!
You start by getting your art in digital format. We suggest you use a scanning app or follow our tips to photograph art like a pro. The next step is uploading photos of your child’s artwork to our platform. This gives you a clean, digital archive of their creative growth. From there, you can sort pieces by child, add notes or memories, and keep everything easily accessible over time.
Once your gallery is built, sharing is simple. You’ll be able to send artwork to family members, post to social media, or revisit favorite pieces whenever you’d like. And when you’re ready, you can turn any piece of saved artwork into a new personalized keepsake. That way, you’ll be able to create customized gifts all year long, not just during a fundraiser.
Create your Family Art Gallery anytime! Sift through the years of drawings you’ve collected, take some time to reflect on the special memories they bring up, select your favorite pieces and upload them to your Gallery. Learn more here: https://arttoremember.com/gallery/learn.
